Description
A series of monologues critiquing capitalism from renowned German playwright Falk Richter.
Relationships build up and break down in ever shorter time-scales; they become a resource in an increasingly intense competition. Binding, separating. Buying, selling. A picture is presented of human beings who, over the years, have radically intensified modern individuality and celebrated independence as an ideal.
