Einstein's betrayal

Three men at the lake, Princeton/New Jersey: a vagabond who lost his son in the war and therefore hates the Germans; Einstein, the world-famous scientist, a German who fled from the Nazis to the USA; and Simpson, an FBI agent who senses treason in this German, believes his Jewishness to be a cover for Bolshevism and blackmails the vagabond into spying on Einstein.The contradictions of the convinced pacifist, socialist, Zionist and Nobel Prize winner Albert Einstein are shown in moving images with dialogues full of subtle humor."I made a serious mistake in my life - when I signed the letter to President Roosevelt recommending the building of atomic bombs; but there was a certain justification for it - the danger that the Germans would build them. "A genius with kindness and wit, with doubts and self-doubt.Premiere: 7.9.2013 Schlosspark TheaterDates Oct / Sep / Nov / Dec 2013
