The Impossible Itself
''The Impossible Itself'' is a 2010 documentary film produced and directed by Jacob Adams to cover the 1957 San Francisco Actor's Workshop production of the Samuel Beckett stage play ''Waiting For Godot'' that was taken to San Quentin Prison and performed before its inmates, with an examination of an earlier incarnation of ''Godot'' as performed by inmates at the Luttringhausen Prison in Germany in 1953.
==Background==
Adams was 19 when he began working to raise the money to create the film. During filming, Adams travelled to Germany in 2000 and interviewed former Prison Pastor Hans Freitag about the performances. Freitag stated on camera that inmates were allowed to leave the prison to perform ''Godot'' in a Jewish Cultural Building in Frankfurt and provided documentary evidence to support his claim. Adams himself later cross-checked the inmate names with names collected in the Holocaust Registry of Nazi officers and found two highly likely matches. The film posits this irony.
The film was dealt a budgetary setback by Swedish theatre director Jan Jonson in 2001 when Adams had travelled to NYC to meet Jonson for an interview. Jonson failed to show and the travel expenditures cost the project $2,000. Production was then suspended until 2006 before continuing with funds provided through the director's student loans. In total, it took 9 years to complete all the interviews and editing. The film's original version was completed in 2008.
