A monologue about working and protesting while the tree trunk is being chopped up. A comparison of two workers, and which of the two works more diligently is taking place through one character. Statement: "Katrin works hard." Question: "Does Liese work hard?" Or a request/order: "Katrin works diligently, now you work, Liese, but also diligently!" The observer character transforms himself into a reflective character, which examines "deception" and the "existing assholes, arranged somewhere" for their system in lyrical-humorous directness. Parts of the text in the video come from the book "Otium" by Franz West, which consist amongst other things of a transcription of unrestrained thoughts.
