Pink

Pink is small and limping. Rosa says what she thinks - at school, on the street, at demonstrations, in the newspaper. Loud and clear. Rosa fights for the weak. Rosa hates war. She loves Leo and nature. Man should be as free as a bird! Rosa is brave, confident and uncomfortable. Not all people like this. But what would the world look like if everyone had a big piece of pink in them?

Fascinated by Rosa Luxemburg, a young and adult audience is introduced to the outstanding life of this woman and the time in which she lived. In times of oppression, persecution, hunger and war, it is above all a story of courage, love and hope, against all odds.

And it is worthwhile to talk about the past, about the beautiful and the difficult, as children and adults experience it today. People are still fighting for what Rosa fought for: justice. Finding the courage and the right strategies to fight an unjust system is as relevant today as it was 100 years ago. Having your own opinion and saying it out loud can and will change the world.
