The Leviathan

A narrator tells us about the beginning of the internet with a slight accent, but otherwise standard German. The story then shifts to descriptions of how the “state” wasn’t happy with their attitude. We see an actor as a stand-in playing multiple people who apologize for their behavior. They also reflect on the procedure of reading the apology itself and how their reading of a text will be broadcasted on television.
