"Eine Bitte" by Noemi Somalvico
Director: Ulrich Lampen
Date: 17.01.2017
Das Fenster steht offen, Frühling weht in die Küche hinein. Gott schenkt sich ein Glas Wasser ein und ist verlegen, weil er Besuch hat. Vom Dachs. Der hat ein Gerät erfunden, mit dem er sich in Gottes Welt beamen kann und jetzt erwartet Gott Kritik, so wie er das von Seinesgleichen eben kennt. Aber Dachs will gar niemanden kritisieren, er will nur kalt duschen. Und das ist der Beginn einer wunderbaren Freundschaft.

Date: 13.12.2016
Zwei Paare treffen zufällig auf der Dachterrasse eines Hochhauses in Santiago de Chile aufeinander. Ein netter Smalltalk entspinnt sich, doch unter der Oberfläche brodelt es.
