2024 | Schweig still, mein Stein! | libretto


Overwhelmed by Weltschmerz, the heart lies on the hospital bed. Diagnosis: a never-ending stream of media static about the world's catastrophes has become ingrained in the body. Three doctors deliberately begin to treat the silent scream, which gradually develops into a language of pain.
