Kulturpark e.V. / Festival OSTEN
Bitterfeld-Wolfen, 2023
“Reunion in Wolfen” kicked off the 2024 Festival OSTEN. The event took place at the former Wolfen movie theater. The program consisted of an internal networking meeting for the partners of Festival OSTEN / Kulturpark e.V. as well as a public program. The event served both to launch long-term artistic projects and to present the themes for the next edition of the festival. With the festival’s move to the Wolfen district, the second edition focused on the eventful history of film and fiber production on the grounds of the former film factory. The aim was to explore the transformation of the landscape, work, society, and the perspective on “the East.”
