Years ago, when starting my first attempt to bring a novel on stage I found - at the age of 12 I guess - Morton Rhue's "The Wave" and tried to write really hundred of pages making the novel to a stageplay script. That there is a real professional transcript I heard more than ten years later. But I never saw it on stage. By the way: indeed, had already dramaturgical aims at the age of 7 even when first putting a witty but moral short story called "Three wishes" into dialoges to be performed with my best friend behind a cinema screen (super8) because we didn't manage the sound synchronisation - imagine, at the age of seven! - we posed behind the canvas screen and tried to lip synchron our acting we saw mirror-inverted.

Well, and yesterday via another mailinglist I got this link to this overwhelming experiment which is mentioned several times in context of the fictional "The Wave".
There you are. Impressing how Jane Elliot teaches her class about the automatistics of prejudicing with her "Blue eyed" experiment.

And I remember lots of details being at school, expecially at Realschule and getting encouraged to lots of topica still remaining a very important ting in my life: having ideas, theatre and expressing myself really emphatically, a "little bit louder" than the average: emotionaly (real good for being on stage) and written. And how gratefull I am to have that responsable-minded teachers at least (well, after some cretins as well in primary school) who weren't totally free of prejudicing, but if then mostly in a positive way.

An amazing film which affects me deeply.
