"Seduction" - Switzerland

Tell the story. Change the world.“From its earliest days, Chicago has been the North American gateway for trade and transportation. That legacy lives on today, as Chicago creates and defines its international gateways- in business, in trade, and in the arts. The City we are building celebrates international art and is eager to explore and collaborate with its global partners. It is our belief that IVP is one more bridge to that present-and-future Chicago, by creating opportunities for conversation and connection among diverse urban voices. Where might this symphony of voices lead? What opportunities for playwrights and producers might we create? That conversation might be the most exciting of all.”~Patrizia Acerra, Executive Director

For much of that time, he’s been in therapy with Tania, whose task now is to help him reintegrate into society. She tells him that a woman called Sonja has come forward, claiming to be Hauke’s daughter. He agrees to meet her, and they hit it off. But is she really his daughter? Or is she motivated by the seven million that went missing? Who’s seducing whom? And just what role does Tania play in determining responsibility and what should happen next?About the Goethe-Institut Chicago | <a href="https://www.goethe.de/ins/us/en/sta/chi.html?wt_sc=chicago" title="https://www.goethe.de/ins/us/en/sta/chi.html?wt_sc=chicago" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Goethe.de/Chicago</a>As the globally active cultural institution of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Goethe-Institut advocates for understanding between Germany, Europe and the world.
