Freundschaft in den Zeiten des Krieges. Multimediales Poetry Project über Grenzen überwindende Geschwisterlichkeit

In the organizer's words:

With Prof. Katharina Mayer, Heiner Bontrup and pupils from the Marie Curie High School in Düsseldorf

When the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine began, many very young people were forced to flee Ukraine. Many of them are now continuing their education here in Düsseldorf - without, of course, having forgotten the often oppressive experiences of recent times. With the support of knowledgeable helpers, some of these young people have put their experiences into texts which, in combination with music and literary texts that reflect similar life situations, create an impressive, polyphonic overall picture. Everyone is invited to experience and appreciate the intense confrontation of young people with their own recent past and the present.

The event originally planned for December 2024 had to be postponed to this date for organizational reasons.

A joint event by the Gerhart Hauptmann House Foundation and the state capital of Düsseldorf
