A plot of land on a Brandenburg lake. The scene of very different fates. Almost a century of German history, from the Weimar Republic to the post-reunification period, comes to life - because this place sees people come and go. Plans, dreams, failures, escapes, new beginnings.
The people who live there leave their mark. And are shaped, driven and driven away by this patch of earth.
An evening of theater about the search for an outer and inner home, and about hauntings from which one cannot escape.
Author Jenny Erpenbeck has been awarded the Thomas Mann Prize, the Hans Fallada Prize and the International Booker Prize, among others.
