Actually there isn´t much to say about Bruno Holbein. He is 38 years old and is married to Margot, 36 years old. They try to promote their 6 year old son Sebastian, who has an IQ of 111,11, as much as they can.
They live in a small self-contained house which is appropiate for a civil servant of the clerical class and a personal secretary.
Every day in Bruno´s life is just the same. The same way to work, the same working routine, the same leisure activities, and every year the usual holidays in Italy on the Adriatic coast, in the same beach hotel.
He forms his opinions by means of television, radio and newspapers. That´s what responsible citizens are made of.
One day, however, his conservative view of society begins to crumble away: Margot tells him that he has won a free flight for the whole family to Kenya at the state lottery A PLACE IN THE SUN. While Bruno had just aimed to become rich and buy himself a social conscience through the lottery ticket, he is forced now to get to know the other side of western life for 2 weeks.
