The story of the graduate physicist Georg B., whose repression mechanisms one day begin to malfunction and who thus comes into direct confrontation with the smoldering fears of our high-tech society. The story of his panic. The resulting tale of woe for his family. A film about the madness of a man. A film about the madness of a society. A film about madness.
"Almost solely with the images, Paulus Manker narrates how someone can no longer bear to be the way he has been - and therefore drives his head a bit crazy." TAZ
