Tegel prison in Berlin, Germany, permitted a unique experiment in 2000 which saw serious criminals engaging in philosophy. For a whole year we accompany hardened convicts who use Socratic dialogues to question themselves and their own value systems. This is a serious undertaking, for the conquest of inner freedom takes place in the violent atmosphere of a prison where both internal and external resistance must be overcome.
