Description
164 lives against 70,000 Court Drama by Ferdinand von Schirach A terrorist hijacks a passenger plane and heads towards the
fully packed Allianz Arena. Although explicitly forbidden
was to shoot it down, Bundeswehr pilot Lars Koch makes a decisive decision. He
shoots down the aircraft, killing 164 people to save 70,000
people in the stadium. Now Lars Koch must answer before the grand criminal chamber of the Berlin
District Court. The defense argues that he
saved tens of thousands of lives through
his actions. The prosecution, on the other hand, accuses him
of not only ignoring
his orders but also violating the dignity
of the passengers. Is a person allowed to decide
which life is more valuable than another? In Ferdinand von Schirach's "Terror," the audience itself becomes part of
the court. In the end, it decides on the guilt or innocence of
the accused and thus determines the outcome of the evening. A gripping court drama about responsibility, morality, and the question of whether
one human life can be offset against another. Directed by Wolfgang Rumpf
