Roman Wasik
In a four-part series, Roman Wasik tells the story of the fate of Martin, a 43-year trustee who has lost everything: his job, his family, his home. After an acrimonious divorce from his wife, the independent trustee broke his ties to the Zurich area and roamed around for years. His attempt at re-entry fails. Martin finds no work, no place to stay, and this vicious circle traps him in homelessness. With remarkable frankness, the father and former family man describes how he feels rejected by society – in the full knowledge, that the publicity of being on television may not just be beneficial, but also harmful to him.
