The documentary series A Requiem for Geraniums is a ten-part work exploring the complex realities of juvenile delinquency within a rehabilitation and correctional setting. Filmed inside a juvenile detention center, the series adopts an observational and intimate cinematic approach, closely following the everyday lives of young inmates while engaging them in direct conversations about their experiences, aspirations, and inner conflicts.
Rather than offering a sensational or judgmental perspective, the series constructs a nuanced sociological and psychological portrait of adolescence under institutional care, examining how personal histories intersect with broader social structures. Through this approach, the work seeks to reflect on questions of responsibility, vulnerability, and the fragile boundary between exclusion and rehabilitation.
