A terminally ill person, focused on coming to terms with his or her own mortality, goes through
stages of fear, repression and longing before a stranger offers him or her support. In return
a quid pro quo is expected and negotiated, which presupposes a crossing of tabooed boundaries
. This creates mental freedom and room for maneuver, which leads to an
unpredictable finale.
Based on research material, the participants of movingtheatre Cologne relate subjective, human experiences in dealing with topics such as crisis, old age, mortality
and euthanasia to social models and religious mythology in a scenic
collage. In painful
border areas of the tolerated begins a search for understanding, dignity and respect.
