Der Kreis
Philine Velhagen & Team
More than two years ago, the group disappeared from our lives. It shrank to the size of our own household plus X – depending on the pandemic status, it got pixelated in virtual space, became something forbidden, a yearning fantasy. And now that pre-pandemic everyday life should gradually return? Do we just flip an inner lever and everything is as it never was? Time for some group therapy! An assembly in the middle of the city. Guided by radio headphones, a group of diverse people try out positioning and strive for rapprochement and distancing.
