    • Renatus is forty and lives with his mother. Formally he has worked as a collegueteacher for math and physics but he had to quit years ago because the class worn him out. „His nerves were at braking point“, he says. R. is a highly sensitive man, with distinctive sexual fantasies. To devote himself to these obsessions he gradually left his middle-class life. R. has spent ten years with Senta Berger. Not really and not on her side but „theoretically and spiritually“.
