Description: For this rather original artistic project, Düsseldorf artist Mischa Kuball (*1959) interviewed 100 immigrants from different generations over more than a year. The intensity of these encounters is reflected in the publication's collection of interviews, portraits, and private snapshots of the interlocutors. The analytical comments by cultural scientist Harald Welzer address the social and political questions of social integration and the future of a multinational population in Germany, and dispel the common clichés about the Ruhrpott region.
