Miracle machine

Serafin loves doing manual labor. He loves the stairs, especially number 126. He dreams like no other and builds a miraculous machine capable of playing any song. If only it weren't for those superiors with their heavy briefcases and those angry-faced policemen who increasingly push him into a tight spot, until he has no choice but to flee to the top.

Benjamin Koch, Emma Görrissen, Eva Sulai of Tredici, and numerous accordionists reflect on how to counter the oppressive system with the help of music, theater, and DIY. How can we find resilience in art? How can we get back up again and again? Where can we find our voice?
