Almost 20 years after Stefan Heym's death, his wife Inge Heym donated the writer's working library, which had been collected over decades, to the city of Chemnitz.
Since autumn 2020, it has been presented in the original furniture of his study as the Stefan and Inge Heym Working Library in the newly established Stefan Heym Forum at the TIETZ, where it is available for research.
Chemnitz-born filmmaker Beate Kunath accompanied Inge Heym's preparations for the library's move with her camera. Supplemented by archive footage from interviews with Stefan Heym, the result is a sensitive double portrait that offers surprising new insights into Heym's life and literary work.
