What a wonderful opportunity for the students to be able to discuss the film with the very same scholar whose work they had been reading to understand the film. And above all, what fabulous conversation we all had around authenticity, competing narratives and the (hi)stories we tell.

A huge thanks to the Mitteldeutscher Verlag and the Puschkino in Halle for the excellent organisation - and of course to Bill.
The event was part of the Wir Festival in Halle, a cultural festival promoting the coming together of people to defend the values of tolerance, respect and solidarity.

It is the first time I have seen the film in a cinema with other people and the audience discussion with @bniven.bsky.social about the film, its production and its postwar afterlife was really interesting.

Vor kurzem hat ein Nachbar von mir ein Familienmitglied in unserem Wohnhaus ermordet. Eine Tragödie in mehrfacher Weise. Keiner der Politiker:innen der CDU (oder AfD) hat sich dafür interessiert. Der Täter war ein weißer Deutscher, geboren in Deutschland. Da kann man wenig Schlagzeilen machen, na?

(For non-millennial readers who were spared the joys of the English education system in the 2000s, “food technology” was one of many attempts to rebrand Home Economics: basically cooking. Food tech had nothing to do with technology or, quite frankly, more often than not anything resembling food.)
