Writing
Freya Deichmann's life undergoes a radical change when she meets Helmuth James von Moltke at the age of 18. "I saw him and my heart stood still." He is the love of her live, a love which begins in the summer of 1929 and has to withstand the Third Reich. The dramatic climax is Helmuth's arrest. It is a time torn between hope and parting. Every day could be the last. Her great happiness: almost everyday they write each other letters, smuggled by the prison chaplain Harald Poelchau. A love in resistance, one which doesn't end with the execution of the beloved.

13 years after the premiere of "7 oder warum ich auf der Welt bin", we meet them again: the 7 children from all over the world. How did they find their way into adulthood?
Seven children from different countries and very different cultures try to answer why they are in this world. They tell their stories authentically, seriously and imaginatively, sometimes with the subtlety and humor that only children are capable of. Because only children can find simple answers to seemingly unanswerable questions.
