CHANGE IS THE ONLY CONSTANT THING

Documentary, 75 min

The film accompanies the life of an artist in Barcelona and Leipzig, who lives, works and organizes parties in former industrial buildings. She improvises and designs these industrial spaces from things that others throw away. The result is a life-size collage that serves to bring people together and unite them. Filled with electronic music and dance, these spaces help her to satisfy the desire for a primal sense of community. “Places where people fall in love and finally find peace in this world”, says Naroma. But these places are always the target of urban upheaval processes and tend to disappear. How do we want to live and what remains of our ideals and dreams? In the end, do we need someone to take these ideals and dreams by the hand, even if they seem to be unreachable?

ORIGINS OF THE MOVIE

The idea for the movie came without much thought. It began with the sudden changes in the west of Leipzig. Subcultural places that I had grown fond of were to change forever due to the restructuring of the district. I started filming to capture the spaces that would disappear. I was soon joined by people who supported me. We wanted to accompany this change together. Over a period of three years, from 2017-2019, we were always there with the camera. We met Naroma during this time. She showed us her place and let us be part of her life. We experienced parties with her. We accompanied her through a certain time in her life and to different places. The film focused more and more on her as a person. Ultimately, the result is a very personal portrait of Naroma that is much more than a documentary of a neighborhood in transition. CHANGE IS THE ONLY CONSTANT THING is the story of a person who lives the subculture, with all its ups and downs.
