Weltpremiere : Marianne Dissard – Kosmopolitin; (Frankreich /USA – Tucson AZ/Italien..)
Filmemacherin; Songscheiberin; Musikerin liest zum ersten Mal aus Ihrem – erst erscheinenden Buch :“The Cat. Not Me: Junk Memoirs Of A Yogini'“
….it is the visceral and unflinching English-language debut memoir by French-American chanteuse Marianne Dissard, a celebrated and charismatic voice from the world-renowned music scene of Tucson, Arizona. The arresting account of a year of self-harming, yoga and travels with her cat, the book reveals, with edgy bravura and not a little self-irony, the deep cracks that threaten an enviable facade of relative professional achievements and freedom. Running for her life away from her hometown, the singer dead-ends in Paris the time of a yoga training intensive. An unexpected offer to teach starts the conflicted yogini on a process of self-discovery and healing. From strong raw material and with a unique and playful voice honed by her years as a filmmaker, lyricist and performer, Dissard crafts a moving and achingly honest memoir of lifelong addiction and, ultimately, recovery.
