After twenty years, billionaire Claire Zachanassian returns to Güllingen. The small town is heavily in debt, impoverished and on the verge of ruin. Zachanassian promises the community new prosperity. However, her financial help is linked to one condition: The residents of Güllingen will only receive the money if they kill Alfred Ill, Zachanassian's former lover and father of her child. He had denied paternity, bribed two false witnesses, degraded her to a whore and chased her out of Güllingen. Now she only wants one thing: justice.
