Salia Sanou

Du désir d’horizons / Desire for Horizons

Dance

French / With German surtitles / With English surtitles / 65 Min.

Salia Sanou turns to one of his favourite themes: the loneliness and otherness of the individual and the simultaneous question of territory, uprooting, exile and borders. The choreographer and dancer here works through his impressions and experiences from refugee camps in Burundi and Burkina Faso, where he conducted workshops as part of the project “Refugees on the Move”. Threatened by the jahidist occupation and the fighting in the neighbouring country of Mali, many people are forced to get by in the tightest of spaces, where they attempt to overcome their trauma.

Latest information for arrival:

There is currently a construction site on Hallesches Ufer between Wilhelmstraße and Möckernbrücke underground station. There is a divided replacement route for pedestrians (right) and cyclists (left), which are separated by a yellow ground line. The carriageway is narrowed to one lane.

Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:

If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.

Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:

When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
