Forced to assume her dead husband’s identity, the working-class Ella Gericke (an intensely physical performance by Scottish actor Maggie Bain) cuts her hair and takes her husband’s job as a crane operator, embarking on an odyssey through 20th-century Germany, from the rise of the Nazis to the Cold War to the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Directors Bruce Guthrie and Scott Graham employ light and shadow to haunting effect in this one-woman portrait of survival, which played to sold out audiences at the 2015 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
