The crazy farce about entanglement and dark political backroom dealings "PUT THE MINISTER IN THE SOCKET." However, the very variation on the title also expresses the spirit of this new comedy. Around the machine that keeps the prime minister of the country dead and alive unfolds a farce of dealings and entanglements with only one goal: To change nothing.
