"Far too rarely do we talk about how our interactions could be different. Perhaps because we too often assume that the understanding of this is implanted in us and not up for renegotiation."
Şeyda Kurt

Everything stands still. Nothing moves. People stand opposite each other. Next to each other. With each other. They try to move towards each other, but every step seems almost impossible. How did we end up here?
Together with four dancers and a percussionist, the Cologne-based physical theater company KimchiBrot Connection explores the various facets of conflict through choreography and text. With the help of in-depth interviews with experts and people from Giessen, they explore the question of how the culture of argument has changed on a personal and social level in recent decades. They go in search of the moments of productive argument and the limits of what should not be argued about.

A co-production with Kulturbüro Friedrichshafen, studiobühneköln and Orangerie Theater Köln. Supported by the Ministry of Culture and Science of North Rhine-Westphalia and others.
