ELLEN BABIĆ

The teacher Astrid and her former student Klara have been living together for many years. One evening they receive a visit from Wolfram, Astrid's superior. He invited himself to discuss a sensitive matter regarding student Ellen Babić, which, if true, should be prosecuted. And there would be legal consequences for Astrid. In a very short time, the two women's living room becomes a #MeToo battleground for sovereignty of interpretation, power and guilt or innocence. Three equally strong parties are fighting for their survival: with an uncertain outcome...

With ELLEN BABIĆ, Marius von Mayenburg has written a sensitive crime piece that becomes increasingly threatening with every glass of wine. Who did what? Who lies and who tells the truth? And is it possible to emerge victorious from this abysmal network of relationships?
