Poetry blends in with the clinical narrative of a planned suicide in this monologue based on a news item and the diary left behind by a murderous adolescent. The greatest contemporary Swedish playwright and a remarkable German actress come together here in this shocking account of a world gone as cold and hard as the barrel of a revolver, where barbarity succeeds in annihilating hope.
