The Buildings

The Buildings

Two brothers own 60 buildings; there is no interest for their property since the buildings are in the middle of a landscape with no obvious connection to the city. The only person who is actively interested for the buildings is Freris; he is operating through an unusual protocol that the brothers cannot understand. He starts buying the buildings one by one, in a low price with the only condition that he would demolish them. The two brothers do not share the same ideas about accepting this investment but they keep renting out some of these buildings, never understanding the purpose of Freris. He is demolishing the houses he gets. The play script begins when one of the two brothers proposes an idea about the motif of Freris and an explanation of his attitude; the only thing that the brothers miss now is to prove that this idea is correct. If it is, they can earn more than Freris by copuing his way of proceding. But shall this idea they have be proved a correct one? Is there a meaning of this balance between the money Freris gives in order to demolish and some different earned value?
