Based on a book by the Swiss author Charles Lewinsky, in the middle of this one-man film is the Jewish journalist, Emanuel Goldfarb, who is invited to speak at a school about his daily life as a "Jewish fellow citizen". Thinking that the whole thing is an idiotic idea, as more than enough has already been said on this subject, he writes a letter to the teacher, refusing the invitation. Yet, to his own surprise, it develops into a general settling of accounts with the German-Jewish relationship. (filmportal.de)

Rules of hospital practice are turned upside down in this complex drama of how non-compliant patients are denied rights. At the beginning of the story, a man is lying in a gutter and arrives at a police station without the ability to speak or memories of what happened to him. Perplexed and defeated by the unsuccessful attempts to make the mysterious man speak, the police send him to a hospital to be analyzed by psychiatrists. (Filmaffinity)
