The focus is on the Hamburg-based trans artist and sex worker Liddy Bacroff, who was persecuted and criminalised under National Socialism and murdered at Mauthausen concentration camp in 1943. She is regarded as one of the first trans women in Germany to be known by name and is today an important figure in queer remembrance culture. Drawing on previously unpublished literary, autobiographical and philosophical texts written during her imprisonment—researched at the Hamburg State Archives—the performance follows those spirits that continue to act through bodies and return because something remained unfinished. In an interactive installation, the bodies of the audience themselves become vessels of memory and imagination.

Against the backdrop of increasing transphobia, the work sees itself as an artistic contribution to a polyphonic queer culture of remembrance.
