Scenic encounter based on the novel by Hans Fallada

Peter-Maria Anselstetter, the "Captain Courage", celebrates his 65th birthday on April 9, 2026!

Erwin Sommer is at the end of his rope: after professional failures, he has taken up the habit of drinking regularly. Crime, further alcohol-related crashes and an attempted murder of his wife first land him in prison as a remand prisoner, and later in a closed sanatorium and nursing home. And so the disaster inexorably takes its course....es read and performed by Peter-Maria Anselstetter as the title character and Gabi Dauenhauer in all the other roles.
