Inspired by the Grimm brothers' “The Story of a Boy Who Went Forth to Learn Fear,” German playwright Rebekka Kricheldorf reimagines the tale of the two brothers in a contemporary dystopian world.
Ingo resides in a high-tech security fortress to protect his own family from the "bad neighborhood", a barbaric dog-eat-dog world that is rampant with crime, gang wars, and violence. It is the home of his fearless brother Raul and when their worlds collide, chaos erupts, turning everyone's lives upside down, shaking their concepts of love, courage, and justice to the core, and blowing up their moral categories. It is a "dark parable” disguised as comedy with strong farcical elements—translation by Neil Blackadder and directed by Karin Rosnizeck.
