”I love being a Gypsy, it makes me special, it makes me proud of who I am and where I come from. At least I know where I come from, by being a Gypsy, and it’s a beautiful culture.“

Ein Abend, zwei Perspektiven und eine klare Haltung: Gegen Antiziganismus, Rassismus und Rechtsextremismus. Die Kurzfilme 'That Boy' (Toby Gorniak) und 'Beyond the Divide' (Imoje Aikhoje) zeigen, wie Ausgrenzung wirkt – und warum gesellschaftlicher Zusammenhalt so wichtig ist. Im Anschluss an die Vorführung findet ein Q&A mit Toby Gorniak und weiteren Gästen statt.

One evening, two perspectives, and a clear stance: against anti-Roma discrimination, racism, and right-wing extremism. The short films 'That Boy' (Toby Gorniak) and 'Beyond the Divide' (Imoje Aikhoje) show how exclusion works – and why social cohesion is so important. After the screening, there will be a Q&A with Toby Gorniak and other guests.
