Ines Geipel: Fabelland
With Jürgen Kaube
Room ticket 12 / 8 Euro / Streaming ticket 5 Euro / Streaming subscription 50 Euro

A conversation about the Germans, in East and West.
Are the Germans losing their historical happiness?, asks Ines Geipel. Almost exactly 35 years ago, the wall fell. It is one of the happiest moments in German history. Ines Geipel, already no longer a competitive athlete and not yet an author, had fled to the West that summer and experienced the rupture of time, the hopes and departures as a student in Darmstadt. In “Fabelland” (S. Fischer) she traces this historical moment. How is German reunification narrated, there and here? Where does all the anger come from, where does the denial come from when it comes to the current state of the country? Together with F.A.Z. editor Jürgen Kaube, Geipel looks back at the political upheavals after 1989 and inquires about the state of the country after the state elections in September in Saxony, Brandenburg, and Thuringia. What is important now?
