We Are All Victims | We Are All Offenders
Inside the Distance is an interactive documentary
about Restorative Justice, an alternative to retributive
justice and punishment. Restorative Justice engages
those affected by a crime in resolving the damage the
crime has caused. In Belgium restorative justice is part
of the criminal justice system. Victims and offenders
are offered the opportunity to take an active part in
the conclusion of their case through mediation. In
mediation, victims and offenders meet face-to-face.
Each gives an account of their own experience of the
crime and its impact on their life. Each is heard and
recognized.
Inside the Distance stages reenactments of this encounter
as described by victims, offenders and mediators. It explores
the subject position of each party - and the many ways in
which those positions are fluid.
