The aircraft was hijacked by terrorists who intended to target the Munich Allianz Arena where, at that moment, 70,000 spectators were watching a football match. Did Lars Koch have the right to kill 164 innocent people? Is he a hero or a mass murderer? And are there situations in which killing others is a good solution? In turn, the jury hears out the arguments of both parties and consequently it must decide about the defendant’s guilt or innocence. And by the way, who is the jury? Well, the audience!

This courtroom drama by the German defence attorney Ferdinand von Schirach, who actually began to write books by accident, has become a theatrical hit in several recent seasons.

The direction will be provided by Petr Štindl, who returns to cooperation with the Moravian Theatre after six years.
