It's a lot of little fish that managed to pierce the fisherman's net - Cie Absent·e pour le moment

Description

By adapting his show "Vielleicht" for audiences aged 11 to 19, Cédric Djedje continues his hunt for the ghosts of colonization in urban space with "It's a lot of little fish that managed to pierce the fisherman's net". This field investigation delineates the shadow areas of history and the subjectivity of its restitution in the form of a docu-fictional show. Through storytelling, dance, as well as filmed sequences and graphic videos, we delve into the heart of the "Afrikanisches Viertel"; a popular neighborhood in Berlin where a significant African community lives. Twenty-five street names still refer to the German colonial past. Isn't it obscene to give the streets inhabited by the descendants of colonized peoples the names of their oppressors?

Highlights

• Show adapted for ages 11-19
