Lisa Konno: Nobu Baba Henk

The book ‘Nobu Baba Henk’ combines the process and stories of the film trilogy by writer and director Sarah Blok and fashion designer Lisa Konno. In their films on migrant fathers they found common ground in their love for stories, told in a lighthearted tone, yet doing justice to their complex and socially involved subjects. NOBU, BABA and HENK let them into their homes and hearts and taught them about human resilience, showed them the beauty and challenges of navigating two worlds and raised the question what culture actually is. In this concluding book each film gets introduced with reference images, design sketches and text fragments of film scripts, before showing the finished films through subtitled filmstills. All carefully selected and designed by Marius Schwarz.
