Three women from two countries. They sometimes sing. They ask questions. About politics. About destiny. And fears. About personal issues and priorities. About spinach stuck in their teeth. About sex and frustration. In 14 different languages. Ymmärrätkö mitä sanon? Is that an interesting question? Instruction. Break. The lyrics are wrong.


What can a Hungarian director tell a German audience? What role does her own diversity as a native Hungarian and now a Berliner by choice play in her productions? And what is a German audience?

Three performers jump between times and places, addressing burning political issues as well as personal fears. In rapid language shifts, they comment on the differences between Eastern and Western Europe, societal patterns in contemporary politics, and the role of language in cultural integration and their own diversity.
