The desert of Germany in 1996, after a thunderstorm.
Here, the search and movement of the figures take place around each other. It is a place without any clues. We are in a time after the departure.
Old, trusted laws have been abolished and replaced by a new, strict set of rules; the figures carry them out together. They are quarrelsome and without memory. This combination promotes extreme brutality. They have no sense of responsibility for each other; they turn themselves over to each other. Into the gaps caused by the absence of the three restless wanderers slip a huntsman and a mute woman. Through the constant emergence and disappearance of the characters, the play acquires a dynamic in which the comedy of existence unfolds in all its diversity.

"I think all my works are always attempts to look for further realities of existence: realities hidden in us, realities more and more displaced by our positivist vision, realities that can work visibly and spiritually on us and through us, without esoteric transfiguration. It is always a matter of tracking down other worlds in order to get closer to our own lives through a multi-dimensionality of truth, or of questioning our lives anew. So I can only point out parts of it and leave it to the viewer to create his own impression. " (Alexander Müller-Elmau)
