Description
Stories about reconnecting with society after decades behind bars in Obama’s USA.
clemency: [noun] disposition to be merciful and especially to moderate the severity of punishment due.
You were in your prime. You had plans for the future. You had a family.
You did something stupid. You got caught.
Then they put you away while your kids grew up, your parents died, and the love of your life moved on.
At the end of his second term, Barack Obama used his presidential powers to commute the sentence of 46 non violent drug offenders. One year later, a journalist meets up with one who has been given clemency. Is it possible to pick up and continue life after decades behind bars?
Each of you will create and share the story of a convicted felon based on quotes from real life persons. The stories will be told in a series of interviews where another player takes the role as interviewer.

Social realism
Player types: You like shared responsibility for creating and sharing stories about realistic characters in unique circumstances. You enjoy listening to and asking strong questions to other players that drive their stories forward. You like a game where much is unsaid and that lingers with you afterwards.
Gamemaster type: None. Clemency is played from the text.
Fortællinger om at vende tilbage til samfundet efter årtier bag tremmer i Obamas USA.
clemency: [substantiv] disposition til at være barmhjertig og især at moderere strengheden af tildelt straf.
Du var i din bedste alder. Du havde planer for fremtiden. Du havde en familie.
Du gjorde noget dumt. Du blev fanget.
Så satte de dig i fængsel, mens dine børn voksede op, dine forældre døde, og dit livs kærlighed fandt en anden.
I slutningen af sin anden præsidentperiode brugte Barack Obama sine præsidentielle beføjelser til at reducere straffen for 46 ikke-voldelige narkoforbrydere. Et år senere møder en journalist nogle af dem. Er det muligt at genfinde et liv i frihed efter årtier bag tremmer?
Hver af jer skaber og beretter historien om en dømt forbryder baseret på citater fra virkelige personer. Historierne vil blive fortalt i en række interviews, hvor en anden spiller tager rollen som interviewer.
