Die Nashörner

Is madness back in reality? This scathing and hilariously funny political parable tells the story of a perfectly ordinary small town where more and more law-abiding citizens are turning into destructive rhinos. While people are still debating whether the unthinkable is actually happening, what can be done, and what should be banned, the pachyderms have already become the majority. Only Behringer, the upright anti-hero, remains human in a world of rhinos.

Following her highly acclaimed Sankt Falstaff, Luise Voigt directs a classic of the theater of the absurd about the rise of totalitarian ideas and the seductive power of a mass movement.
