Summary:

Situation Rooms is a multi-player video piece on the global arms trade which has been touring the world since 2013. Made by Rimini Protokoll, a Berlin-based theatre group famous for using true stories. Handheld devices play short films that guide the audience through rooms that simulate places around the world. The short films were recorded by people whose real life stories are affected by weapons. This film documents the one and only time this group of people came together to record their stories about weapons.
