INSTITUTIONALISERET er barske og kuldslåede digte om at bebo mange verdener samtidig – om både at være kriminel, bror og skoleelev. Fortællingen begynder den dag, jegets far kommer i fængsel, og slutter, da jeget selv sidder inde og afsoner en dom for forsøg på manddrab. Haidar Ansari (f. 2001) tegner et portræt af "kvarteret" på Amager, hvor et jeg vokser op, og af de institutioner og fængsler, som han ryger ind og ud af. Det er en fortælling om jegets vej ind i kriminaliteten og om alle de veje, han ikke tog, selv om han havde muligheden for det.
