After 19 years of absence a nostalgic lover meets the love of his life again, but is it really her? A tattooist has witnessed a woman being murdered without interfering, but all of a sudden sees her in a bar. The murder didn’t take place and the woman is still alive – does he feel any better now? A married man mourns for his dead wife, who, after three years, is standing on his doorstep. She says that she’s back, is she let in? A fascinating play about a human being lost in the place between fantasy and reality. A human, who literally cuts his own flesh, tattoos himself, kills himself and is hurt by other people, because he doesn’t feel sure about love. Only pain exists as the single physical world. First performed at Münchner kammerspiele, 2006.
