Kriegsbeute (The Spoils of War) tells the story of the demise of the arms manufacturing family Bloch. On his deathbed, the head of the family is befallen by a destructive case of charity and begins to throw the company’s capital out of the window for purposes of philanthropy. Alarmed by this news, his children visit their parents’ mansion to dethrone their father and quarrel about his succession.

In 2014, Burhan Qurbani and Martin Behnke caused a great stir with their film Wir sind jung. Wir sind stark (We Are Young. We Are Strong); they have been working as a duo ever since. Kriegsbeute will be created as part of Berliner Ensemble’s authors’ programme.
