MENA Prison Forum in Berlin

Understanding Prison

The MENA Prison Forum is dedicated to researching prison culture in the MENA region. The interdisciplinary, international network includes former prisoners, filmmakers, academics and activists from various countries. Together with medico international and HAU, the organisers are presenting parts of their work as a series of events at HAU which takes place instead of a conference planned for December 2023. In a mixture of concert and discourse, on 27 November the focus will be on Sednaya Prison. To counter the oppressive soundscape in the cells of the notorious prison in Syria, a group of political prisoners founded a music group there 30 years ago. They built their instruments from leftover food, clothing threads and other prison materials. After several decades, the musicians recently came together again and will now play their songs live for the first time on replicas of the instruments originally built in prison. Afterwards, the panelists will discuss the long history of imprisonment, torture and human rights crimes in Syria, which have taken on a whole new dimension since the bloody suppression of the 2011 revolution and the ongoing civil war.
