Ich, Akira - Monologstück für einen Hund mit einer Frage
Monologue piece for a dog with a question by Noëlle Haeseling and Leo Meier
People love their dogs. Dogs love their people. Akira is a dog, and he loves his human, Attila.
Attila adopted Akira as a puppy from the animal shelter, pampered him, and raised him, washed him, brushed him, petted him, did everything for him. "Even my poo my Papa Attila took care of," says Akira, and how he was present at every important event of Papa's: when Papa opened his first vegan snack bar, when Papa wrote his third vegan cookbook, when Papa publicly advocated for animal rights and organic food, when Papa attached a Reich flag to the hood of his Porsche and cruised around the area with it, when Papa shouted something about Hitler into a megaphone at a rally, when Papa got insulted on Instagram ("Hirsehitler," "Avocadolf"), when Papa received his first criminal complaint, when Papa ran away to Turkey. Attila Hildmann. Vegan, self-made man, anti-Semite, racist. Beloved human and Papa of Akira.
A dog speaks, we listen. In the end, he will ask us a question that is profound.
