1. “Confession”
Presskit
Director’s Statement
The film presents the last moments of Ulrike Meinhof who was kept completely isolated from 1972 to
1976. As a symbol, she was chosen by Fo and Rame to put in her mouth words that reveal every
moment, making it an identity, what it seems to seek an abusive political power of a society. The
timeless meaning of these words gave rise to escape the text from the theatrical monologue, to give life
becoming a movie picture, directed, Adaptatied and Screenplay by Emmanuel G. Mavros, with Zetta
Pasparakis holding the key Woman's role - a symbol, Ulrike Meinhof.
For Greece and its citizens that the last four years are bombarded by an absolute abuse of political
power, a country that counts over 4000 suicides, 2 million and over unemployed, hundreds of
homeless, Showing the total the infringement of human personality and existence, in a country that
continues and will continue to bleed, the symbolic nature of Ulrike Meinhof and the words of Fo and
Rame, make this movie the last and final effort to save this country and its citizens from the
parliamentary dictatorship of a supposedly post-dictatorship democracy, to get rid of the shackles of an
authoritarian totalitarian mechanism, having as a basic aim to indolence and put down to sleep - which
until now has succeeded in projecting concepts and institutions, destroying the best out of this country:
the thought, culture, sun and smile.
Away from any political and partisan identities the film aims to highlight the biological and spiritual
passion of humanity into the absolute isolation, but also the need of freedom of thought, the necessity
of free will. Its purpose the last awaken of the sleeping blissfully blessed inhabitants of all organized
states.
