Mahn, Jule Claudia: I am here / Ich bin hier
"Adam kisses his grandmother on the forehead to say goodbye. "I'll get my driver's license in three months. Next time I'll come by moped. Say hi to Grandpa." He has to think about this when he returns to his grandparents' small new-build apartment after twelve years. In between lies the fall of the Berlin Wall, a phone call from Grandpa and growing up. But how can life be successful when there is still an inner division?
Two inextricably linked books tell two lives. Or - two books tell two perspectives of one life. Each book can be read separately. But the view of things and their evaluation changes when leafing through and reading them in parallel. The viewer meanders between the worlds, separated by a wide gray strip - a wall, a road, the unresolvable in-between."
