Hyper-civilisation versus fundamental instinct. In the not so distant future, functional communication between the sexes must be painstakingly learned in self-help courses. Eight men and women try to overcome their speechlessness within the protected framework of a self-help group, approaching their real needs through a process of "re-naturalization". Compositions by Carola Bauckholt are combined conceptually and scenically into a musical theatre evening which examines the narrow line between social norms and our animal instincts.
