part of the exhibition:
FAKE - The Whole Truth
Fake news, fake profiles, fake products – in many areas of life we encounter counterfeits and disinformation of all kinds. We find doping in sports, business leaders cheating, and not only the random prominent politician relying on alternative facts.
But–being completely honest—how do you feel about the truth? Have you really never ever lied? And if so, probably only under duress?
Undertake perhaps the most exciting office visit of your life at the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum Dresden.
The museum has transformed into the Office of the whole Truth, enter at your own risk to get to the bottom of lies and reveal the truth.

F*KE YOU will initiate the moment of truth! An interactive event connected to the special exhibition FAKE. The whole truth – more entertaining than a pub quiz and more exciting than an escape game with music, performance and lots of discussions. How is your personal relationship to truth and fiction? A new discovery in the "Office for the Whole Truth" will put you to the test:
A strange object was discovered in a storage room of the office – wrapped up and covered in dust. Since then, some employees have complained about confusing dreams and strange noises from said storage space. In addition, the moral compass in the Office is not working properly anymore. For F*KE YOU! this object will finally be revealed - and presumably this will have consequences...
Very few people believe that a world without lies would be a better world. But which lies are acceptable? Which inevitable? Where do we draw the line? How do we calibrate the moral compass? Now it is your turn: Can you come to an agreement – or not? The participatory Performance F*KE YOU will put you to the test: Are you truthful enough or rather a friend of hypocrisy? Is your morality outside all boxes or quite mainstream? The policy will be: F*KE YOU!?
