Summary :
The whole town is buzzing with excitement: She has returned! After ten long years away, this “returning migrant” is awaited like a savior, everyone convinced she has come back with enough wealth to rescue the town from stagnation. But hopes quickly waver—she shows no intention of giving anything, neither to the town nor to those who once nurtured her. Suspicion creeps in. Attitudes shift. How far will the townspeople—and those in power—be willing to go to seize her fortune?
Witty and sharp, this socio-political satire playfully explores democracy, migration, and gender equality, exposing the fragile balance between hope, greed, and power.
Freely inspired by Bernard Wicki’s film The Wrath (La Rancune) and Friedrich Dürrenmatt’s celebrated play The Visit, this piece reinvents timeless questions for today’s society.
