There will also be a hands-on circus and other workshops on the theme of sustainability. For example, you can make toys from recycled items or determine your virtual water consumption.

It is director Emmanuel Cappellin's intimate journey across the abyss of a world on the brink of climate-induced collapse. He obsessively confronts the question of how best to respond personally and collectively to the present and future catastrophes.
His journey into this uncharted territory is that of an entire generation turning to climate scientists, local democracy, grassroots initiatives and mass uprisings to courageously seek a way out.
Chance Festival is funded by the Franco-German Civic Fund and is part of the DRAUSSENSTADT initiative, supported by the Senate Department for Culture and Social Cohesion and the Foundation for Cultural Education and Cultural Consulting.
