Von München bis Berlin sieht er wundersam wiederaufgebaute Städte – und dahinter das Schweigen, die Verdrängungen und die Verwüstungen der Vergangenheit.

De Tweede Kamer heeft iets van een theater, en het vragenuur is een voorstelling. Aaf Brandt Corstius zit erbij en noteert woordenwisselingen, akkefietjes, lachsalvo's, misverstanden, taalvondsten en soms een ontroerend moment.
