Hamburg-Premiere FOR THE TIME BEING, mit Q&A im Anschluss

In the organizer's words:

Special event with discussion afterwards, with director Nele Dehnenkamp and the Hamburger Fürsorgeverein

Michelle married her childhood friend Jermaine in the sterile visiting room of a high-security prison - in the hope that she would soon be able to live with him in freedom. Jermaine claims to have been wrongly convicted of murder. He is serving a 22-year sentence in the notorious Sing Sing prison near New York. For years, Michelle fights tirelessly to prove his innocence, while simultaneously caring for her teenage children Paul and Kaylea as a single mother.

In a grueling routine of short phone calls, letter writing and visits to the prison, she dreams of an idyllic family life outside the prison walls. Just before Paul and Kaylea leave for their own lives, a new piece of evidence is discovered in Jermaine's case, reviving their hopes for his imminent release. Made over the course of almost a decade, the documentary "For the Time Being" paints an intimate portrait of female resilience in the midst of the ailing US justice system.
