Welcome to the Nachtsicht Festival <EditionNoEscape>.
We have been discovered!
Our hiding places have become useless. In search of new corners to be in, there is no escape. No escape from the fact that we have to keep moving.
<NoEscape> no longer just feels threatening after the first turn.
<NoEscape> becomes an exclamation of hope. We move forward in the hope of giving emancipatory ideas room to maneuver. The path goes <through the middle>. <With and through> the earth.
28.–30. August 2020
Online Edition
via the festival website www.nachtsichtfestival.de
The website is accessible a year after the festival to browse through.
The first online edition of Nachtsicht Festival takesplace during the Covid Pandemic related lockdowns – »Edition No Escape.« Throughout the weekend, the artistic contributions will be activated on the festival website. Visitors can get in touch with each other via chat and in digital workshops. Choreographer and dancer Lina Gomez will premiere her first dance-listening piece: »A Dance Piece for Listening.« The Nachtsicht team is working with Mina Reischer, Felix Förster, and Mira Simon on a sci-fem audio piece called »Houston, Houston, We Have a Problem« based on James Tiptree Jr.’s same-titled short story. The play is based on the short story of the same name by James Tiptree Jr. and takes its course when a spaceship loses contact with Earth and floats disoriented in space.
In »What’s Cooking, Good Looking?«, Franziska Doll and Lisa Herold interview chefs and bakers all over Stuttgart, turning them into instructors for joint cooking sessions. Streaming from Tel Aviv’s rooftops, rapper Mayco performs/brings you a late-night rap show. 24 digital paintings by Maren Frey pop up by surprise on the website — one of the recurring motifs is the airplane as a global networker and a mystical place where potential catastrophe scenarios linger.
The festival offers children a reading of »Flee, the Cat that never left home«followed by a cat crafting workshop with the author. A new interpretation of »Boys Love Novels«, based on the Japanese manga, is published during the festival as a mini-series.
