Anyone who knows it won't be left cold: the smock apron. It stands for work that is taken for granted - in the kitchen, factory, shop, kindergarten or hallway. For some, it evokes memories of closeness and care, for others of starting a shift or visiting their grandparents at the dacha. This afternoon, the long overlooked work dress and its wearers take centre stage. What do you think of when you hear "smock apron"? At the storytelling café, you are invited to share your memories and stories about smock aprons - or simply listen. You are welcome to bring themed photos or even your own smock aprons.

The afternoon will be led by Stefanie Reis, cultural scientist and smock researcher, who has been working intensively on smock aprons and their significance as a material of remembrance since 2023(www.diekittel.de).

The event is being organised in cooperation with Filmfest Dresden and ties in with the festival's focus on "Work in Transition".
