About empowerment and misunderstandings - a humorous look at a common movement
In his play "Bei den Linken", Riadh Ben Ammar looks back on 20 years of political activism in Germany. It all begins in a refugee camp in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, where he has his first experiences with the left-wing scene. Who are they and why do they support us? And what does that do to us? The play tells a story about common political struggles, empowerment and misunderstandings.
"Bei den Linken" is part of the Theater for Freedom of Movement project, as part of which Riadh has been touring Europe with various plays since 2012. He lives between Tunisia and Germany and is a co-founder of the transnational network Afrique-Europe-Interact. He criticizes the EU's external border and fights for the right to freedom of movement.
