About event
Admission 6.30 p.m. - beginning 7.30 p.m.
86 hours ›sopranos‹ in 11 days - where others go on vacation. Thorsten Nagelschmidt tells with wit, depth and relentless openness of the attempt to escape his annual misfortune.
The author and musician Thorsten Nagelschmidt has fallen into a deep hole around the end of the year. He has not celebrated Christmas for over 20 years, instead parties and excesses formed a tried and tested means of distraction. However, the depression was never stuck, at most. He will take the escapism to the top and finally watch the most famous series in television history, the ›sopranos‹. All 7 seasons in a row, 8 hours a day, 11 days.
in the tradition of David Foster Wallaces Kreuzfahr-reportage ›Terribly amusing, but in the future without me‹ Nagelschmidt voluntarily goes into an extreme situation, in order to fathers personally, cultural history and with a lot of humor, what is with these non-locations of the holiday industry, the different concepts of family and this perhaps. The strangest time of the year is.
›only for members' is Thorsten Nagelschmidt's analysis of loneliness in times of social isolation. A escape movement inwards - and last but not least a great autobiographical exploration of your own abysses.
»Oh, the pressure we put on ourselves this time of the year ... - I call it stressas.« (Dr. Melfi, the sopranos)
