1979. On a beach in Brazil, Joseph Mengele, the notorious Auschwitz doctor, swims like he does every morning. Swimming out in the sea he gets a crisis and returns to the shore where he is confronted by a local woman. Flattered and fascinated by her enigmatic presence, Mengele reveals himself to her. As he seeks to justify his life, he ultimately succeeds in condemning himself.
An atmospheric production written by writer and historian Philip Wareham with veteran Tim Marriott (BBC TV The Brittas Empire), which is presented in cinematic style. The production is rich and intense with its contemporary reference as it exposes a sociopathic narcissist on stage.
