The correspondence between Bachmann and Celan is one that invades the present. This is something that Beckermann quickly grasped when filming the actors Anja Plaschg (a.k.a Soap&Skin) and Laurence Rupp, exchanging the words of the two lovers, face to face in this auditorium. From passion to disappointment, from separation to reunion, feelings become intertwined, reinvesting the present. Each letter read seems to provoke in its reader the doubt that the love they are portraying may also be the one they are living. Plaschg and Rupp, "on the verge of losing their sanity," will not emerge unscathed from having delved into the lives of lovers who loved each other more than their own lives.
