Character One: Susan
Synopsis
Susan is a glamorous train wreck: a delusional drug-addict and psychotic who compares herself to the likes of Maria Callas, Romy Schneider, Monica Bellucci and Désirée Nick. Her childhood ended when she was sexually abused for the first time at the age of 11. Even though she has a strong personality and speaks five languages fluently, she was never able to take care of herself. In the 1990s, she became one of the IT Girls of the post-reunification party scene in Berlin. She only feels safe among gay men. Decades of drug-abuse may have destroyed her brain, but not her personality.
