The play delves into a crucial period in the life of German writer Ernst Jünger, set in occupied Paris during the Second World War. Inspired by fragments of his diaries, the piece combines historical figures with newly created characters to offer a profound reflection on war, morality, and the human condition. A scenic proposal that invites us to question the limits of ethics in times of conflict.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe play is set in Paris during the Second World War, a scene of occupation and constant tension. The protagonist is the German writer and soldier Ernst Jünger, an intellectual figure who experienced the war from a privileged but also morally complex position. Based on a real fragment of his diaries, playwright David Abia constructs a plot that blends documented facts with fictional characters, creating a space for debate about individual responsibility in the face of collective horror. The work is not a war story in the usual sense, but an inquiry into the psychology of its characters, trapped between duty, conscience, and survival in a devastated environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWar as a limit experience and its effects on individual morality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe conflict between military duty and personal conscience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe role of the intellectual in times of barbarism and their ethical responsibility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical memory and the reconstruction of the past through personal diaries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe moral ambiguity of witnesses and participants in contexts of occupation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work is aimed at readers interested in contemporary theater with historical and philosophical content, as well as students and professionals of the performing arts.
