Makkaroni goes return: For the right to stay

nomadic subjects: came to stay A post-migrant gathering with reading/performance, discussion, film and handicraft. When the so-called guest workers (Gastarbeiter:innen), exiles and intellectuals, and later the expats, came to the Federal Republic, few of them thought they would stay for good. Two, three years in Almanya: that was the plan. And so they dreamed year after year of returning to the Mediterranean, and in doing so forgot to return. But how does it feel to live in an in-between space? What does it mean to be at home in more than one place and to carry multiple belongings within oneself? And how does one's existence take shape when there is no longer a place, no longer a state, to return to? When life in the country of origin is threatened? In a time when migrant society is under massive attack, we defend the nomadic. Sometimes poetically, sometimes politically, we celebrate the good life.
