The time Fassbinder in the 1970s, they have not known, Nordey and his actors: Judith Henry, Laurent Sauvage, Dea Liana, Vinicius Timmerman. In a vast space, crowded, apartment and location filming, photographs, screens, furniture, the mess, following this succession of moments which will from the past to today, with migrants, or Daech.
Nordey and Richter give a side music hall to the performance.

A theatre that plays to the sensibility and intelligence of each. That shakes and reconciles.
