Overview
Getting out of Europe is the only thing on Volker’s mind when he buys a one-way ticket to Africa. The 24-hour layover is less than ideal.
Stuck in Charles de Gaulle airport, Volker waits, thinks, and observes. Around him, a strange cast of actors moves across the stage: a porn star, a child trafficker, a terrorist with dwarfism, a trans woman, a pedophile, a disgraced professor. As he walks the terminal, Volker contemplates their fates, his own, and the fate of the lover he left behind.
