From prison to theater, from delinquency to resilience, Redwane Rajel tells the story of his life, old and new, in a one-man prison play by Enzo Verdet. Redwane Rajel says it all: theater saved him. Since then, he has borne vibrant witness to this in a form of restorative justice. For such is Redwane’s life, with its bad-boy prison arms and life-saving highs, from acting classes at the Le Pontet penitentiary to Olivier Py’s Antigone and Joël Pommerat’s Marius. Subtly staged, the rough and beautiful story is told by its herald, one foot in, one foot out. When doors open and hands are outstretched, the future is bright.
