In the 90s and early 2000s Motzfeldtsgate had a cultural significance for the Tamil community in Norway. As one of many streets in Grønland who facilitated different lifestyles of the peoples connected to the place, this particular street consisted of a food store dedicated to Tamil spices, tea and international call cards, as well as a video store that used to rent out the latest Kollywood films.
By highlighting the Norwegian-Tamil history at Motzfeldtsgate, and its social and multicultural infrastructures, SASUSU Radio seeks to expand ideas of migratory meeting places and how they change or take another form over time.
SASUSU Radio pulls the handbreak at Motzfeldtsgate in Grønland to hold an event filled with blended taste, stories of coexistence and togetherness through sonic vibrations and film.
The performance is free.
