Set in Berlin during the final months of the Weimar Republic
and the beginning of the Third Reich (interspersed with a
series of "interruptions" set in 1989 Berlin), the play focuses
on the relationships among a group of artists and political
activists, and on their compromises and acts of defiance in
a period of turbulent and ominous political upheaval.
