    Desc: Carolin Kebekus und das DCKS Festival - Frauen auf die Mainstage: Directed by Su-Jin Song. With Carolin Kebekus. When Carolin Kebekus addresses sexism in the music industry in July 2021 in "The Carolin Kebekus Show" (DCKS Show), the starting signal is given for the DCKS Festival. What began as a fixed idea now becomes official: On June 6, 2022, the festival will take place at the Tanzbrunnen in Cologne. Author and director Su-Jin Song accompanies Carolin Kebekus and the creation of the DCKS Festival. The documentary shows how Carolin Kebekus and her team go into the planning highly motivated. At this point, they don't yet know what they've gotten themselves into. Organizing a big festival within a very short time and selling thousands of tickets means a lot of work. And anyone organizing a festival with an all-female lineup has to contend with a lot of resistance and reservations. The documentary focuses primarily on the female musicians at the festival, including MINE, No Angels, Annie Chops, Lea, Luna, Kuoko and Donia Touglu and their stories, but also on the background of an industry in which equality is often still a non-existent word. The film also shows excerpts from concerts.
