Sebastian Depke finds it difficult to look others in the eye. His spine is ossified and stiff. His posture is bent. Ankylosing spondylitis is an incurable, rheumatic disease. What is really special about it, however, is what Sebastian Depke makes of it and how he deals with it. The key was learning to love the disease. He climbs in paraclimbing world cups and world championships, is an athlete spokesman, book author, diver, programmer and is taking his own very own path with the disease. His current path: emigrating to Spain. The climate there is healthier for him and his inflammation levels. On the way there, he made a stopover in the back room. The conversation with him is divided into two parts: in the first hour, he talks about his life as a World Cup climber, faking classifications and the political tensions in sport. In the second hour, he explains the background to his disease and his strategies for solving it. In the back room with and by Flo Rudig.
