Upside Down – Inside Out

Resilience is the particular ability to withstand stress. One of these particular abilities is dance and its answers to the madness of this word are movement instead of stagnation, vision versus resignation, resistance against adaptation. The Aktionist*innen explore, through and in dance, the power of the collective body, a community which won’t be silenced, wants to counter the hate from the extreme right, deportation fantasies and toxic pressure. Of course, the Aktionist*innen have more questions than answers, but they’re not afraid anymore, and together they will dance a present moment that no one can take away from them.

With Amadeus, Tarek Alnajjar, Adamou Bance, Frida Branecka, Nadar Humaidan, Etchi Ndip-Agbor, Malia Neumann, Aliyye Sahin & Anouk Wenzel
