Harun Farocky elaborates a lucid yet disturbing essay about the "control" watching by means of footage from USA maximum security prisons surveillance cameras -which include the death of a prisoner in a fight- and other materials and film fragments (scenes by Genet, Bresson and from Nazi documentaries). In his latest film, Respite, he uses a Nazi propaganda film shot -by order of the commander- by a prisoner in a transit camp, who was subsequently deported and killed; another concise and appalling analysis of found footage.
