At the end of the Second World War and before the return to peace, almost two million German women were raped by soldiers of the Red Army. In the Soviet zone, and then in the GDR, the victims were reduced to silence because of the new political context. However, during their stays in psychiatric clinics, when they spoke to the therapist, some of these women mentioned this sensitive and painful topic, ten or twenty years after the fact. Based on a corpus of psychiatric and psychotherapeutic records of these statements, this study focuses on the experiences of these women, amalgamating multiple accounts in non-linear time, and examining the way that the matter was regarded.
