The historical documentation describes the events of the Progromnacht in November 1938 from the point of view of participants and observers, on the side of the victims and the culprits. Oppressive, partly up to now unpublished archive material provides a picture of indifference and approval with the unprecedented processes. Play scenes show what people had to suffer at that time and how they got in the suction of violence.
Beside Günter Lamprecht, Georg Stefan Troller, at that time in Vienna, and Rolf Abrahamsohn, at that time in Marl, tell how they experienced the turn of an era on their own body. Also Rudolf van Nahl who stood in front of the burning synagogue of his Rhenish home town in the Alps confirms in the retrospect: All this happened in the middle of the life, in the whole country, in front of everyone. Günter Lamprecht has retained hit outrage until today, whenever simple slogans and uniform behaviour suppress human sensations.
