Synopsis

Autbiography of a woman who dedicated her life to expose and frustrate ex-Nazi officials who seek high positions in European governments and bureaucracies. Armed with pamphlets, a great deal of nerve, and the moral support of Serge, Beate, the frail young French-German girl, sets out to foil the political aspirations of a number of prominent ex-Nazis. She is best remembered as the woman who slapped Kiesinger. Her narrative, in the form of a journal, takes her to dozens of European cities, to Latin America, to the Middle East; there are many arrests, trials, and imprisonments--they can't stop her mission. Beate's story is told with considerable charm--she takes pains to impress on her audience that she is not some wild-eyed fanatic, but rather a nice, respectable, middle-class hausfrau, who just happens to jet around the world in pursuit of ex-Nazis.
