Lives are at risk. Horns begin to spread. Three people seek shelter in a subway station. Three animals keep addressing them. But they are internally divided. Will they take action?
This world is hardly more absurd than our own. Inspired by Ionesco’s »Rhinoceros«, we look at authoritarian transformation and fascist tendencies in the present — from a queerfeminist perspective, drawing on expert interviews and the means of puppet theater.
