Bouchareb’s drama follows North African soldiers fighting for France in the Second World War. Promised equality but treated as second-class troops, they confront both the violence of war and the injustice of the colonial hierarchy. With powerful performances, Indigènes restores visibility to forgotten veterans whose sacrifices were long denied and ultimately sparked real political change.

Due to the 2026 Berlin Half Marathon, between 27–29 March there are road closures in the area. HKW is fully accessible via public transport—S-Bahn (Hauptbahnhof) and U-Bahn (Bundestag)—and via bike or on foot.
