    Synopsis

    At the art workshop for people with disabilities in Berlin Spandau, 16 artits work from Monday to Friday – and their work is defined as gainful employment. The art workshop is part of a whole range of workshops, where contract work for the industry is completed. Here, Art is produced on the same terms.
    Observing the artists at work, one can clearly see how persistently they are fighting for the desired expression. It reveals something substantial about the aim of art: Giving shape to the world, trying to understand it and adding something to it, that reflects this insight.
