In 2007 in Calais, a whole family hanged themselves: the parents and their two children. Never a motive was found, the suicide note stated: “We messed up, sorry.” Family is an experiment, an ethnological study of today’s private life, shows an evening like many – only that it is the last one. And in this exhibition of the everyday, the big questions arise: Why are we here? Wouldn’t it be better if we disappear? On stage: the actor-couple An Miller and Filip Peeters with their teenage daughters – a real family. With this existential family drama Milo Rau completes his trilogy of modern crimes.
