In this interim period, in which what has been established so far proves hollow and cruel, but no future appears in sight, the present transforms into a nightmarish haunted house, marked by diffuse fear and feelings of powerlessness. In Leonce and Lena – a Nightmare Game, five Leonces struggle for orientation and stability. In doing so, they fight against the paralysis of the frantic standstill, between boredom and sensory overload. They are both prisoners and prison guards in their own nightmare. To escape their isolation, they dream of other people who are supposed to satisfy their needs for love, sexuality, and friendship. But these apparitions develop a life of their own, resisting the Leonces' demands and questioning their identity. Are the Leonces afraid of the monsters, or are they themselves the monstrous products of the interim period?
