The Perfect Manual traces the rise of an apprentice dictator, his seizure of power and his totalitarian reign, right up to his downfall. Behind the scenes, a handful of senior leaders pull the strings and manipulate this man until they turn him into a monster.
With hindsight and, at times, even a touch of light-heartedness, three actors explore the vocabulary of authoritarianism and question the very meaning of the word ‘democracy’.
‘The old world is dying, the new world is slow to emerge, and it is in this twilight that monsters arise.’ — Antonio Gramsci
