"There is a war coming.... A war that will last for a hundred years....
I think it is already here. I think we've been fighting it a long time"
A young Jewish physicist and an activist poet meet at a party and fall in love. As society splinters around them, the couple's struggle to survive erupts into violence.
Cordelia Lynn's new play is a subversive and intimate love story about inheritance and the cycles of politics and history.
