Kanak Kids

Sixteen-year-old Dessi leads a double life: In Munich's hotspot district of Neuperlach, she pretends to be a foreigner with jogging bottoms and Alman jokes, while at inner-city high school Daisy wears a blonde wig, blue contact lenses and speaks High German. She keeps her friends secret from each other. She would rather try to fit in everywhere than make herself vulnerable. The tactic works - until one day she is caught by Bo during her transformation. Bo is not only Dessi's neighbor, but also her classmate and therefore the only one who knows both of their personalities. Can Dessi convince him to keep quiet? Or will their two worlds collide for good? NOMINATED for the "Korbinian-Paul Maar Prize for New Talents 2024"! Registration at: www.freiburg.de/lesefest
