There are only a few comparable days on which the living conditions of millions of people were realigned at the same time. The old world order was replaced by a new one in which all those affected, civilians, soldiers, victims and perpetrators had to redefine their future lives.

Based on an article in the weekly newspaper DIE ZEIT, an interdisciplinary project of drama and music theater of the state theaters of Saxony was created. In a scenic reading, six contemporary witnesses have their say and describe their memories. They all survived. The lives of all of them were steered in a new direction on this special day.
