Schlucken! shows the face of an illegal immigrant who is forced fed in a prison in Austria. “Swallow!” the female’s doctor’s voice insists repetitively.
Schlucken is projected on a massage table and refers to misguiding, enjoyable names of torture techniques like telephone, jukebox, shower or Disco.
