Another theatrical work by Dürrenmatt, "The Marriage of Mr. Mississippi" - a tragicomedy with socio-political reflections and philosophical quests.
The protagonists, a woman who desires life and love to the fullest with all that it entails, and at least four men who get entangled in its tentacles.
The Prosecutor tries to give meaning to his life and justify his professional decisions with the help of the Bible and the Law of Moses, the businessman who loses his ideals in the greed for money and the vanity of ideologies, the politician who, faithfully following the saying "the end justifies the means" with his lies, uses people and situations without caring for the losses.
And the unique romantic of the group and loyal friend and beloved of the female, incurably in love, incurably good and kind, and facing a false society, desperately seeks the meaning of life and love in philanthropic works far from his wealth and comforts, to the point of ultimately losing everything, betrayed by everyone and everything and especially by his one true love...
