Synopsis
“Identity is a topic everyone thinks about at some point during their lifetime. Who am I as a person and who am I in this society?” This is the question the student Isa asks during a photography work- shop with South African artists Hasan and Husain Essop. The twins were born in Cape Town in 1985 and have a natural affinity for the subject of ‘identity.’ They have made a name for themselves interna- tionally with their staged photographs about identity-related issues. In November 2009, the two artists visited Hamburg and collaborated with students and young people from very diverse backgrounds. Their photographic collaboration offers a multi-faceted reflection upon the complex subject of identity.DVD | original German/English version with English/German subtitles available
