Sympathicus and Parasympathicus are parts of the nervous system which are responsible for the resting and active phases. They could not exist without one another, there would be unbelievable exhaustion. And these two poles can be seen in the film, in which I have separated my body into two halves, painted black and white and wearing a crown to represent the unity that a person is, however contradictory that person is. (Mara Mattuschka)
