The story of Manuel unfolds around the thoughts blending into an inner monologue of an unnamed observer, as he regularly visits the Olympic swimming pool in West Berlin in the summer of 2020. It is the story of a failed flirt, of urban bodies travelling across the city for a brief summer escape that is told in this live audio play. It is the story of their sounds mixing in the hallway, showering, murmuring on the meadows, of their arms and legs slashing the water, forming rhythmic patterns that echo through Nazi architecture. By and with Armin Lorenz Gerold, with Hanne Lippard and the voice of Heike Geißler reading extracts from Charlotte Beradts The Third Reich of Dreams.
