John Berger - novelist, playwright and one of the most influential writers about arts in the English language - makes his debut as a performance artist. In a powerful one-man performance that uses many voices, he explores the nature of silence, the significance of radio and the quality of likeness in a work of art. He rails against contemporary commercial cynicism, the international trade in body parts and the plight of Mexican freedom fighters, reflects on a Beethoven piano sonata and offers a commentary on Goya's affection for his dog during the artist's last silent years in Bordeaux.
