Yvette Coetzee: she is living in Berlin (Germany) and working as an actress, writer, director and poetess. She comes from Pretoria (South Africa) and spend quite a part of her childhood on her grandparents farm in Namibia.
She is writing a lot about the impressions from that time, and so she wrote the poem "Die Plaas" (The Farm) in africaans. She was trustfully enough to hand that poem to me to interprete it in a musical way, and she also lend her voice to bring this cooperative musical track alive. Thanks so much, Yvette.
