Laila Soliman

Blending documentary material, personal testimonies and different methods of storytelling, the theatre director Laila Soliman constructs experiences that merge reality and fi ction. Her performative research project presented in the Berliner Herbstsalon examines the security apparatuses of the State. Staging the cold rituals of its bureaucracy she uses the medium of the interview to record the psychological impact of security policies on citizens in three cities of different national contexts: Rabat, Cairo and Berlin.
