The story of an influential banker and his recognitions during an era dominated by an overriding materialism. He withdraws his money from the bank, blocks his accounts, puts his life behind him and battles the system he is a part of. The plan? To start of a global hyperinflation. Stockmann's mammoth piece is a text about humility, desire and power, but above all anxiety and money. It's a cacophony, a tapestry of voices, a chorus of average informed EU citizens. A modern Faust!
