What is truth, fact, memory or reality? Artists Broomberg & Chanarin, Omer Fast, Chia-Wei Hsu and Meiro Koizumi all illuminate history in conflict zones in their own way and question whether war can be retold. Stories are often subjective and change when told from a different perspective.

Opening hours
A Tale of Hidden Histories can be visited daily at EYE Film from 10:00 am - 7:00 pm.
