Ich rufe meine Brüder

Stockholm 2010: A car bomb. Two injured. Thousands of looks. Fear is spreading! Cupid lets himself drift in the diffuse disco light and be swallowed up by the black night. The phone keeps ringing and his friend Fabi is trying to reach him. He's worried. The next morning: Spit out on the hard ground of reality, an unstoppable carousel of thoughts begins for Amor. Nobody has been caught yet. But Cupid feels the looks of the others. Because he is suspicious because he looks like someone who could be suspected. It is important to become invisible. To shave. Not to stand out. He's innocent, right? Cupid is not a terrorist - he is a student, best friend, helpful cousin and caring grandson. But Cupid increasingly begins to observe himself. Is that paranoid, or is the city actually frozen in fear? He still tries to go about his everyday life as normally and, above all, inconspicuously as possible. But what does “normal” actually look like when you suddenly become a projection surface for prejudices? It quickly becomes clear how easily the perception of perpetrator and victim, of reality and imagination, can be blurred and manipulated. “I call my brothers” shows how fragile this boundary is and how easily the gaze can be manipulated in a society that has to obsessively observe everything.

The novels and dramas by Jonas Hassen Khemiri show the problems and challenges of our society with a clear and at the same time poetic perspective.
