In the award-winning audio drama ‘Welcher Art die Wärme ist’, three authors find their own linguistic space to tell the story of their family life under the regime of the seasonal worker status. How does the racism and violence of that time still characterise Switzerland today? How can we remember the repressed history of violence and illegalisation, but also of resistance and love? How are memories narrated in literature and transformed artistically? As a society, how do we move from remembrance to reparation?
A listening session that creates a space to publicly negotiate an injustice that is not past and to break new ground for justice.
