KEY VISUAL KURT TUCHOLSKY - GEGEN EINEN OZEAN PFEIFT MAN NICHT AN
Kurt Tucholsky, a social critic and womanizer, satirist and idealist, could use words like no other. He also had an unfailing sense of social developments. With almost clairvoyant acumen, he saw Germany sliding into catastrophe and warned of the looming dangers years before Hitler came to power.
With his texts and music from his era, we paint the picture of a Berliner who threw himself into political debates with the same passion as the pleasure-seekers of the Weimar Republic and whose writings have lost none of their relevance even 100 years after they were published.
