This is art

Season 1 Episode 12: Guilt

Confession is one of the ways to combat guilt, starting with Original Sin, as described in the Bible. Gener interviews Father Kern, a priest at the Church of St. John of Nepomuk in Munich, and several people—including a prisoner for theft—whom he asks to explain what guilt means to them. He also highlights the stories of several artists who used their art to allay their feelings of guilt (from Brahms with his music to Picasso and Caravaggio with their paintings), and some world literature that has addressed this theme, such as Pushkin's "Boris Godunov" and Shakespeare's "Macbeth." As a final reflection, Gener suggests following the example of these artists and using art as a way to allay guilt and the resulting voice of conscience.
