Geneva

January 21, 2008

It’s 1938 and the world is on the brink of World War II. An aristocratic German jew, who has fled Nazi Germany, arrives in Geneva asking for help. A pretty, young secretary, left to run the International Committee for Peace office alone, writes a letter. So begins Geneva. Eventually, Hitler, Franco, and Mussolini all converge on Geneva for a peace trial to state their case.

Written by George Bernard Shaw in 1938.
