What I would give my life for
Anousha Nzume talks to Christine Otten (NL), Roland Colastica (Curaçao), Bart van Loo (Belgium) and Manon Uphoff (NL). They were inspired by a confronting question: who or what would I be willing to give my life for? Four writers, four pleas for a cause which sets them on fire. As surprising as moving: the stories and songs of inspired writers and storytellers. In Dutch.
