Description
ON THE BRIGHT SANDY BEACH deals with the memory of Delfin Guerra and Raúl Garcia Paret, two Cuban contract workers in the GDR who died in Merseburg in 1979. During a visual tour of the city, acoustic fragments from Stasi files, letters and Facebook chats condense into a reflection on forms of remembrance and racist continuities.
