Background-Information/Trivia
This documentary came into being within the scope of the Film Academy study. We got 240 meters 16mm film material (about 22 film minutes) and a Bolex. Monja Art visited several times with the protagonist and talked to him. After this Caroline Bobek and Monja Art shot this documentary within two days. The result is a 20 minutes long documentary. The used film material is almost 100 percent of the total material.
