Join writer and activist Abdel Amine Mohammed and film-makers Gregor Kasper and Musquiqui Chihying for a screening and discussion of this documentary with a difference. We'll explore the history behind their recent film Café Togo, today's views of a violent, often neglected past, and innovative, multidimensional aesthetics of memory.

Presented by the research project 'Violence Elsewhere: Imagining Violence Outside Germany since 1945', at the School of European Lanagues, Cultures and Society (SELCS), UCL, and the Centre for Women's Studies (CWS), University of York. Generously funded by the German Academic Exchange Service / Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD) and supported by the Institute of Advanced Studies (IAS), UCL.

All welcome.
