Terror

The rule of law must prevail, otherwise, man makes himself a god. A terrorist hijacks a passenger plane and forces the pilots to head towards a fully occupied soccer stadium. Against the orders of his superiors, a fighter pilot from the air force shoots down the plane at the last moment, resulting in the death of all passengers. The pilot must stand trial for his actions. His judges are the theatergoers, who must decide on guilt or innocence. The radio play by Ferdinand von Schirach is strikingly relevant. It raises the question of how we want to live in the future. Will we choose freedom or security? Do we want human dignity to still apply despite terrorist attacks? (2 CDs, duration: 1h 31).
