Produktbeschreibung
An uproarious but deadly serious satire about family, money and morality. When the bricks of the Berlin Wall begin to fall and apartheid unravels, Max flees Cape Town. He teaches ethics at a university abroad, but his ethical agenda has nothing to do with virtue or values; it's all about revenge and retribution. Max's sole objective is to seek vengeance upon his once-beloved Uncle Izaak. Max's father and Izaak were partners in South Africa's largest property empire. Illegally, they secretly stashed money away in a Swiss bank. But Izaak cleaned out the lot, bolted out of South Africa, and holed up in a magnificent mansion amongst New York's mega-rich. Max's Dad, meanwhile, died destitute while facing the music in South Africa. So Max pursues Izaak, and when they finally meet, Izaak orchestrates a midnight meeting with Max's dead father. Will Max receive any solace from the world to come?
