The question of justice and guilt are central themes in Friedrich Dürrenmatt's comedy "Die Panne." The story follows Alfredo Traps, who must interrupt his journey due to a car breakdown. He finds shelter with a retired judge, spending the evening with him and his former colleagues: a judge, a prosecutor, a defense attorney, and an executioner. They reenact famous trials and lack a defendant for the evening, asking Traps to fill the role. Convinced of his own innocence, he agrees, but gradually becomes ensnared by their game. At the end of the lavish dinner, a death sentence awaits him.
Originally conceived as a radio play and published in 1956, the story was later adapted into a novella, film, and theatre piece.
Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921-1990) is one of the most important writers and playwrights of the 20th century, also known as a painter. His works are permanently exhibited in Neuchâtel, his Swiss hometown.
