Where Are You, João Gilberto?

Where are you, João Gilberto? sets out in the footsteps of German writer Marc Fischer who obsessively searched for the legendary founding father of Bossa Nova and last great musical legend of our time, Brazilian musician João Gilberto, who has not been seen in public for decades. Fischer described his journey in a book, Hobalala, but committed suicide one week before it was published. By taking up Marc Fischer's quest, following his steps one by one, thanks to all the clues he left us, we pursue João Gilberto to understand the history, the very soul and essence of Bossa Nova. But who can tell whether we will meet him or not?

DJ Bobo - Circus (The Show)

A giant clown, spectacular video, light and pyro effects, an excellently choreographed dance show, impressive artists, an excellent band with Jesse Ritch as special guest and, of course, lots of DJ BoBo - that's the recipe for the Swiss megastar's latest stroke of genius. The breathtakingly large stage turns out to be a giant clown that transforms the hall into a circus ring that is hard to beat in terms of entertainment value. The stage alone is technically impressive: a sophisticated light show and state-of-the-art video mapping allow for rapid scene changes and even allow DJ BoBo to talk to the clown - or dance with his own projection in the background. As ringmaster, BoBo transports his fans into a fascinating dream world in which one highlight follows the next.
