Synopsis:
Martha and Kurt are expecting a baby. They want the best for it and Kurt does all the overtime he can get. Baby Stefan is born and the overtime dries up. But there is one special job Kurt's boss can offer him, dumping some barrels of 'bad wine'. He dumps it in their favourite lake and when baby Stefan goes swimming later that day he is badly burnt. Their world is turned upside down. ... A black box, evocative lighting, video projection and the actors' imagination are the tools LPP uses to tell this powerful tale.
