Matthias Brandt & Jens Thomas: Blackbird

Matthias Brandt Reads | Music: Jens Thomas

When 15-year-old Morten Schumacher, known as Motte, receives a phone call, nothing in his life is as it once was. His best friend Bogi is suddenly very ill. Shortly afterwards, Jacqueline Schmiedebach from Einstein High School rides past him on a Dutch bike, and the next shock takes its course. Between these two poles, the possibility of death and the possibility of love, events continue to escalate, spiral out of control and present Motte with unknown, painful challenges. "Blackbird", Matthias Brandt's first novel, tells of love, friendship, comedy and the tragedy of life. Motte, Bogi and all the other characters in this exceptional novel will never be forgotten.

After the successful programs "Psycho", "Life" and "Krankenakte Robert Schumann", this is the new evening by Matthias Brandt and Jens Thomas.
