Professor Halder, a scholar of German literature, is a good man. People tell him so. Even as they come to him to burn his books. Set in 1930s Germany, GOOD explores the creeping growth of fascism as it trickles poison into the ear and points at the 'others' and tells us 'they are the problem.' The good professor must make some choices to protect his books. To protect his life. GOOD is a fever dream that examines how self-preservation can lead to self-destruction. "If I am not for myself, then who is for me?" says Halder.
