BLOCKWART
Blockwart is a surreal audio comedy tracing one year in the life of BOULD, a young acting student whose reality begins to blur with the mythic play he’s rehearsing. Set in a fictional Berlin where the seasons carry their own distinct mood, the story is narrated by BLOCKWART— an ex-Blockleiter, once responsible for enforcing Nazi doctrine, turned modern day janitor — meddling with human flaws and sense of lingering guilt.
Hosted on buzzsprout, available on major podcast platforms.
