ENEMY MATERIAL
by Simon Froehling
A mock marriage is supposed to allow Imad to escape the discrimination in his country. His lover, his alibi-wife and his advocate discuss the details in Imad's absence. To lie accurately, they have to align their stories about him - and yet they keep contradicting themselves. Imad turns into a blind spot, into a stranger whose life is diametrically opposed to the liberal and casual world of his friends, and who eludes definitions.
While the three spin their tales, the object of their interest is being questioned by the police. Will the authorities be able to unearth more reliable facts?
