"I am always astonished about reality. It’s not just the duty to inform, you want to convey this initial experience to the reader that you are irritated sometimes because things don’t fit into the clichés. All the clichés are somehow proven wrong when you read a good reportage"Hans Christoph Buch (jury member 2003)
