Even though I don’t speak German this audio slideshow by photgrapher Peter Vogel is VERY powerful.
Peter writes:
The intertitles explain: Long Time detainees work on a self made adaptation of Brechts “Rise and Fall of the city of Mahagonny”. There will be never a public show. The prison does not allow. So at the end only one thing remains: The prisoners can escape from isolation and lonesomeness.

I love the way he has only used atmos and pictures – the story is told through text rather than audio. It paints the picture well.
agree Kim … there are so many layers to this, perhaps more then any slideshow I’ve seen … art, performance, imprisonment, performance …
