Ingolstadt, 1926. The Pioneer is in the country! Dispatched to build a bridge, the group of soldiers is welcomed as an exciting diversion in the orderly routine of small-town life. The unemployed Alma quickly makes the acquaintance of the foreign pioneers and sergeants. The maid Berta wants to do likewise. Her chosen one, Karl, who is regularly harassed by his military superiors, warns: whoever loves him must suffer. Nevertheless, Berta seeks love with him, while the young Fabian fails in his advances toward her. The advice from those around them is: in love a man must be cold. The system of pressure that holds the men firmly in its grip discharges painfully in every one of their encounters, tearing unbridgeable rifts in their dealings with one another.

After Mary Shelley and Thomas Melle, in an adaptation by Philipp Arnold. The scientist Victor Frankenstein appears to have achieved what humanity has longed for since time immemorial: to overcome the laws of life and death like a god. A human-like creature sees the light of day, but its creator casts it out in disgust. Searching for belonging, the creature swears revenge, and a pursuit to the ends of the earth begins. The production asks who the monster really is here, and whether we can bear responsibility for what we create.
