The premiere of the first motion comic “Border Crossings” on June 26, 2022 was a very successful moment in the MoCom project! Right before the participants presented their motion comic to an audience on the big screen of the Helmstedt cinema “Roxy Lichtspiele”, they reflected on what they had learned about the inner-German border.

In its feature, the MDR precisely summarizes the goals of the project and the production process. The Marienborn Memorial to Divided Germany is implementing the MoCom project which was conceived and developed by Dr. Anja Werner (historian) and Dr. Sarah Fichtner (social anthropologist).
