In the organizer's words:

Soledad

BRD, palm trees and how to simply disappear:
After "Arbeit", the new novel by Thorsten Nagelschmidt

March 2020, a secluded lodge in the Colombian jungle village of Soledad. Hamburg photographer Alena only wants to stay for a few days after a painful break-up. But she falls more and more for the mystical charm of the place and the stories of Rainer, the German owner of the lodge, whose life story has little to do with Alena's first impressions of this strange and charismatic man: Always considered too soft in his childhood, he rebels against stuffy post-war Germany in the 1960s, works as a salesman for denim goods and, after an odyssey through Latin America, ends up in Colombia, where he buys a piece of land from a high-ranking drug dealer to build his lodge out of nothing.
As in his highly acclaimed novel "Arbeit", Thorsten Nagelschmidt's "Soledad" tells with impressive empathy and humor of people who, at first glance, appear to be very different and whose desire for recognition and belonging brings them closer together than they initially thought.
