Saying No

This is a powerful evening you won't want to miss! Bestselling author and renowned actor Matthias Brandt comes to Literaturhaus München to share his latest work, "Saying No." He reflects on the brave individuals behind the July 20, 1944, resistance attempt and, profoundly, on his parents, Rut and Willy Brandt, who actively opposed Nazism. Based on his impactful speech at the Plötzensee Memorial, this event delves into what resistance truly means today, especially as democracy faces pressure from right-wing extremism. Joining him is historian and journalist Ruth Hoffmann, author of "Das deutsche Alibi," for what promises to be a deeply thought-provoking discussion.
