SISTERQUEENS Vol. 3 is a hip-hop camp for girls* and young women*. Together with hip-hop artists, they went to the countryside for two weeks to find space for artistic experimentation, relaxation and sisterhood in a quiet environment. In addition to teaching rap and dance skills and using them to express their own stories and positions, the focus was on exploring the history of hip-hop.
The summer camp fulfilled a great wish of the SISTERQUEENS participants*: A good time together with hip-hop and at the same time summer, sun and relaxation by the lake. MINTA* and FLINTA* aged between 9 and 27 from Berlin and beyond were invited to the summer camp at Erlebnishof Preddöhl (Brandenburg). The camp not only offered them space to pursue their own artistic expression and bring it into dialog with others, but also for community in a safer space. In addition to the workshops, friendships* were forged and perspectives exchanged during movie nights and excursions to the lake. At the end of the camp, a small party was, to show the created songs and choreos, to dance and sing together.
The camp took place from 29.07. - 02.08.24 (younger girls*) and 05.- 09.08.24 (girls* and young women*). A total of aproximately 40 MINTA* and FLINTA* took part in the camp. The camp was accompanied by a professional team - including the rappers Alice Dee, Hasczara and Leila Ey, as well as the dancers Moneymami and Ezgi.
Chris Herzog and Alexander Bauer take us on a journey through Duisburg, Bochum and Gelsenkirchen. Grauzone Pott tells the silenced story of migrant resistance and escalating neo-Nazi violence in the Ruhr region in the 1980s and 1990s. Using archive material and talking to contemporary witnesses, the two filmmakers shed light on the deep social tensions and struggles for recognition in a time of struggle for survival. The 5-part series starts on January 9, 2025 and is available everywhere there are podcasts.
