Heim gesucht! (UA)

In the organizer's words:

"I was looking for a home to live in because I was physically abused and neglected."
"Heim Gesucht!" is based on intensive personal research in the social sector. People who live in residential youth care, grew up there, work there or make socio-political decisions for it have their say. The actor Gerrit Kuhnen, who himself grew up in a residential home for boys in Duisburg, draws on his own experiences.
"The youth welfare office was at the door. My mom came home with the youth welfare office."
The focus is on the topics of social background, classism, the transition to independence and social responsibility. The focus is on the perspectives of those who are often invisible, who have to struggle and for whom family or a home cannot be taken for granted.
"I would put a lot of money into social work because I think it's very, very important for social peace."
