Munich, 1965. An apartment somewhere in the city center. Twenty years after the end of the war. A young rebel and a professor of arts, whose lives are intertwined through a shared secret.
An unexpected encounter ignites an intellectual and generational clash, where the characters, gazing into one another's souls, exchange roles and perspectives. Who will ultimately be the creator of the lecture "Questions of Ethics and Morality," and who will be the rebellious enfant terrible—challenging conventions and authority?

Savva Saveliev, playwright, director, and artist of The Mirror, describes:
“The play was inspired by Heinrich Böll's story 'The Silence of Doctor Murke' and Kurt Vonnegut's novel 'Slaughterhouse-Five, or The Children's Crusade.'
However, these works serve merely as a starting point for The Mirror. I continue to delve into themes of memory and how the present shapes and reverberates through the past.”
