From and with Adriana Altaras, Nino Haratischwili, Los Superdemocraticos,
Philipp Khabo Köpsell and Volkan T.
Secrets are the worst thing in the world according to Adriana Altaras. When her parents die she inherits a flat in which history has been quietly accumulating for over 40 years. A child of Tito’s era, the curious relics take her on an extraordinary family saga reaching right across Europe and the 2oth century.
Playwright Nino Haratischwili sets out in search of the writer Jeanne Saré, who is suspected of having inspired several female readers to commit suicide. With vertiginous intensity, Juja describes just what effects stories can have in real life.
In a series of short essays, Los Superdemocraticos develop their own political vocabulary to voice off about love, politics, work and migration in the 21st century with blogger Rery Maldonado and other contributors to the brand-new collected volume reporting on intellectual fair-trade products.
The James Knopf Act by Philipp Khabo Köpsell examines the German landscape with a poetic eye that homes in on scenes of everyday racism and colonial continuities. I speak, so you don’t speak for me!
Between readings Volkan T. is there to entertain you with Wir schaffen Deutschland ab.
