Opening

An odyssey, coming of age and family separation story of Kefaet and Selami. The two young brothers and rap artists grew up in the hip-hop culture in Essen. Kefaet was born in Kosovo and taken by his parents to Germany at the age of four. Selami was born in Essen and has never been to Kosovo at all. During a dramatic night in March 2010, they are deported to Kosovo, a complete unknown country to them. Separated from their family and friends they try to cope with their situation and do everything they can to return to Germany. But administration and asylum laws are standing in their way.

The opening event will be presented by Clemens Camphausen and will be musically accompanied by Moon&Melody.
