Why go

Titanic satirist Moritz Hürtgen and Süddeutsche Zeitung legal columnist Ronen Steinke share a stage to pick apart where the limits of free speech and satire actually sit in Germany today. Expect a mix of comedy and serious argument, moving from jokes to hard cases about which statements courts have punished and which they have let stand, and back again. It is a talk for anyone who follows the debate around what you are still allowed to say, with the outcome left open to a lively Munich crowd.
