Drifter
by Sebastian Heidinger
Aileen (16), Angel (23) and Daniel (25) escaped the
remnants of their families and the confines of their small
towns to the anonymity of the Berlin metropolis. Their new
space of action is the area around Zoo Station. They
prostitute themselves to support their drug addiction. At
night, they find shelter in halfway houses, in the homes of
acquaintances or with regular clients. They have hopes and
dreams and a vague plan for their lives, but one which
remains a construction site, much like their world, in
which they are constantly forced to establish themselves
anew: a world of transitions, unstable in-betweens, the
highways, the back ways, the stores, niches, and places of
transit.
