Gangsters, Crooks, and Thugs

“All real life is encounter,” Martin Buber once said. Storyteller Christian Lisker has always found this statement optimistic. But what if—as his alter ego suddenly torments him—all these encounters end up disappointing because people are incapable of respectful, loving coexistence? So are we all gangsters, crooks, and thugs—or is there still hope? A train journey across Germany with a storytelling duel about the nature of being human becomes the final vote on this question.

Christian Lisker, a trained theologian, has long been searching for universal traces of what sustains, supports, and nourishes us as human beings as long as we are traveling on this speck of dust in space—in biographical and traditional narratives, poetry, wisdom stories, and short prose. Recently, he has been telling them himself, which he learned at the University of the Arts in the continuing education course “Storytelling in Art and Education,” among other places. He believes, along with Ben Okri, that stories can conquer fear and enlarge the heart.
