GEGENÜBER FESTIVAL

Stories of migration characterize our modern societies, in which people from different cultural backgrounds search for belonging. Cultural diversity is celebrated on the one hand, but at the same time new social boundaries are emerging. The Goethe-Institut's “Longing/Belonging” festival presents artistic contributions and social discourses from Germany and North America.

On-Going Projects

Longing / Belonging

Cultural diversity is celebrated, but at the same time, new social boundaries are emerging, as films such as Republic of Silence, Kaddish for a Friend, Zuhur’s Daughters and Nasim illustrate.
