have completely opposing political views? Julian Hetzel drew inspiration for his extraordinary intimate play from a real-life couple living in Vienna - he is a left-wing cultural scientist with a communist past, she is a leading intellectual of the New Right and the Identitarian movement, and together they have three children.
