Graf/Klemperer
This revolution has no song
A moving look back at the revolutionary period in Munich by the "Kollektiv Herzfeld" as a visible radio play musically painted by "Le Millipede"
I wonder if they met in Munich in 1918/19? On this evening they do: at least their memories do.
And it's about nothing less than the first democracy on German soil. The Prussian scholar Victor Klemperer and the "anarcho-Bavarian" Oskar-Maria Graf talk about their experiences during the proclamation of the Free State of Bavaria, the campaign for the first democratic elections in Germany, Kurt Eisner's assassination - as well as the founding and bloody suppression of the Bavarian soviet republics.
A play full of lofty dreams and harsh, bloody realities...
