New Citizens' Will campaign - Chryssa Tsampazi

A crime that takes place in the newly encircled Bocholt administration of all places - so the Borken police have to investigate where responsibility has just been reluctantly relinquished. Only together can the case be solved. Inspired by true stories from Borken and Bocholt, Giese, Tiemann and Kraas present a fictional crime story full of local peculiarities. Interviews with contemporary witnesses, gripping archive discoveries and an exciting plot merge into an almost true podcast - with Giese and Tiemann as hosts, sound by Johannes Kraas and audio recordings from the interviews with the citizens.

Project location: Borken district

The Encirclement, Episode 2: Blue Admiral

THE ENCIRCLEMENT, EPISODE 3: WHITE FEN

"Reenactments are a performative and cultural time machine. [...] The project is intended to make history physically tangible and at the same time serve as a platform for a reference between past and present." - Chryssa Tsampazi
