This immortal sentence. “This area has ruined me, and I’m staying here until it shows.” It’s a cross with home, so the surreal romantic flees after all. To Greenland, where there is a lot of ice, but not nearly as much as back home in the cold of home. You can then look into it with a telescope because there is still a lover there. “Servus Bayern” is a film by Herbert Achternbusch, he is 45 years old, and Josef Bierbichler stars in it.
Things weren’t that bad in Munich when Achternbusch told this city what it needed to hear. “I imagined that I was tolerated on the sidewalk until people looked at me and I felt pushed out onto the street.” This is from “The Hour of Death” and from a time when the Munich mind was not yet gentrified. You have to and can hear it all again now, in the inn, where Stefan Kastner, who is actually the inventor of Achternbusch, sits two of the heroes of his theater performances at the table, Inge Rassaerts and Rainer Haustein. “Achternbusch 2023” is the name of the pub reading. Bottom up.
Achternbusch 2023, 26/27/28. Nov., 8 p.m., Paulaner Brauhaus, Kapuzinerplatz 5, registration at [email protected]
