<\/div>\n\n\n\n

As a single father in a remote village in Somalia, Mamargade struggles with the challenges of everyday life. His sister Araweelo is looking for a new home with him after her divorce. Cigaal, his son, sometimes comes up short in the turbulence of the fragile family. Mamargade needs money, his income as a self-employed gravedigger is barely enough. Araweelo, meanwhile, is looking for a way to realize her dream of owning her own tailoring business. Despite having different goals, the patchwork family finds its own way through love, trust and confidence.

The atmospherically dense family drama was the first Somali film ever to celebrate its international premiere in the competition of the \u201cUn Certain Regard\u201d section at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. The director will be present at the screening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SPECIAL<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Spoken Word Performance:  \u00bbBelieve\u00ab<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Die Performance von Philipp Khabo Koepsell ist eine lyrische Sammlung von dynamischen Spoken Word-Texten in englischer Sprache, passend zum Festival-Fokus \u00bbBelieve\u00ab. Die Texte gehen der Frage nach, welchen Glaubensgrunds\u00e4tzen wir folgen, um unsere Identit\u00e4t zu konstruieren und unsere Realit\u00e4t zu begreifen, welchen Irrglauben wir unterliegen und welche Perspektivwechsel uns einen Blick in eine afrofuturistische Zukunft erlauben.

PHILIPP KHABO KOEPSELL<\/strong> performance is a lyrical collection of dynamic spoken word texts in English, in keeping with the festival focus \u201cBelieve\u201d. The texts explore the question of which principles of belief we follow in order to construct our identity and understand our reality, which misconceptions we are subject to and which changes of perspective allow us a glimpse into an Afrofuturistic future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
