Andreas Altmann: Sehnsucht Leben

In the organizer's words:

On the beauty and the abysses of our world

If anyone can put life in its many forms into words, it is Andreas Altmann. He has often proven that his stories inspire us to dream and occasionally shudder. In his new volume of reportage, we accompany Altmann around the globe. His unmistakable narrative style allows his readers to participate in encounters all over the world. From Mexico to South Africa, to Siberia, Paris and the other side of the world - to Sydney. With this best-of of his stories, Andreas Altmann creates a longing for life.
"Andreas Altmann is the most famous German travel storyteller, there is no continent, hardly any country where he has not yet been and reported on his on-site experiences." RBB Inforadio
