\u00d6cher Competition I: „Aachen at Night“<\/strong><\/p>

In the first block of the Aachen Competition, surroundings are cast in unusually dark shadows \u2013 whether in the thundering bass of a music video, grainy animation, or an expressionistic shadow play. Some things shine brighter in the dark; political backdrops, be it the deafening L\u00fctzerath or a game of hide-and-seek between prison and kiosk.<\/span><\/p>

Im ersten Block des Aachener Wettbewerbs h\u00fcllen sich die Schaupl\u00e4tze in ungewohnt dunkle Schatten \u2013 sei es im dr\u00f6hnenden Bass eines Musikvideos, in k\u00f6rniger Animation oder in einem expressionistischen Schattenspiel. Manche Dinge leuchten im Dunkeln heller, so auch politische Kulissen \u2013 ob im bet\u00f6renden L\u00fctzerath oder beim Versteckspiel zwischen Gef\u00e4ngnis und Kiosk.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
