With support of the Goethe Institute in Paris, the conference will host a presentation of “Endstation Bataclan” (Terminus Bataclan), a french-german documentary on Samy Amimour, one of the terrorists involved in the attack on the Bataclan theatre. Amimour was a busdriver on the RATP suburban line 148. In the film, Alexander Smoltczyk and Maurice Weiss follow the itinery of the bus through the northern suburbs of Paris. They meet with many different people, giving a profound insight into a variety of microcosms between the stations Le Blanc-Mesnil / Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace and Bobigny – Pablo Picasso. According to current planning, Smoltczyk and Weiss will give a short introduction and there will be opportunity for discussion afterwards. “Endstation Bataclan” will be shown in French with English subtitles at the Goethe Institute Paris, Avenue d’Iéna, 75116 Paris.
