Nadine, von Gott vergessene Kinder

In 1978, a report about Amee Brooks, also known as Christine, 14 years old, appeared in Stern, serving as a precursor to the worldwide success "We Children from Bahnhof Zoo." Parents and teachers were aware, but no one raised the alarm. First a Käthe Kruse doll, then Irma La Douce. She received 30 DM. Her parents filed a complaint, the story was put on hold, and the protagonist was later replaced by the now-famous Christiane F. Amee's childhood was anything but loving and orderly. Neglect, a life in a children's home, later the death of her beloved foster mother, hardship, abuse, and then Bahnhof Zoo, drugs, the fleeting happiness of intoxication - and time and again, incredible violence. The author speaks brutally honestly about her lost childhood and defenseless youth, abandoned by everyone. However, she also reports on the strength that can lie dormant in those who are at rock bottom.
