A Contemporary Drama in One Act

The play tells the story of the deeply unplatonic love between two of the 20th century’s most significant philosophers—Hannah Arendt and Martin Heidegger. It is a story that is both captivating and disturbing.
Their secret affair lasted for four years; afterward, Arendt and Heidegger had no contact for 17 years. Then, for more than 25 years, their public friendship became widely known.
