"The Second Man" Karl Sjölung

Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

The second man is a miniature play by Karl Sjölund and musician Stéphane Argillet. On February 24, 2024, Argillet left his apartment in Berlin for a run. In Treptower Park, a group of plainclothes police officers arrest him. When he tries to verify his identity, the officers explain that they cannot trust his information and they are not interested in seeing his ID documents, which they claim are forged.
 
After a full day of interrogation at Berlin's police headquarters, Stéphane is finally released. Back home, he realizes he was mistaken for the former RAF member Burkhard Garweg. The day before Stéphane's arrest, Garweg's RAF comrade Daniela Klette was apprehended in her Berlin apartment after three podcast hosts identified Daniela using an AI facial recognition program, after which they informed the police of their discovery. Before being taken away by police, Daniela managed to send a text message to a person who was in the same neighborhood as Stéphane with the words "They have me."
 
Garweg has commented on Klette's arrest and the ongoing search for himself in open letters where he portrays his own situation, his involvement in the RAF, along with a critique of the politicized process he claims he is subjected to.
