About the show

We're at Ralf and Sarah's for a night in of games and pizza. Our hosts are a young couple, slightly eccentric. Afraid the evening will be boring, the couple aim to spice things up by claiming that they have the body of Sarah's colleague, Mr Kolpert, in a suitcase. Are they practical jokers or is there something darker going on? A black comedy that becomes almost farcical.
