What happened in New Orleans during the Mardi Gras celebration in February 1955? Was there a riot against the police, a full 14 years before the Stonewall riots in New York City, which have so far been seen as a turning point in the fight for equal rights for the LGBT movement? For his video work "Hang On, Hang Tight", artist Flo Maak goes in search of clues together with Lasse Lau.
In the interview with DOUBLE FEATURE curator Julia Schaake, film artist Flo Maak gives an insight into his video work and his interest in film.
