Spoon, Spoon

In 1978, Spoon Jackson was sentenced to life imprisonment. In jail, where he still lives, he discovered poetry and his own literary talent. Michka Saäl knows Spoon. She never sees him but she talks to him on the phone. She listens to him reading his poems. She fi lms landscapes which are his own kind of freedom, or his dreamed escape. She fi lms bodies that dance and wonder if it is possible to translate words into movements, if it is possible to give Spoon some freedom of movement, even vicariously.
