What Der Diener is
Tony hires Barrett as his valet but Barrett soon promotes his controlling sister into the household, using her to manipulate Tony’s bachelor habits and undermine his authority. A darkly comic power shift unfolds around cocktails and household routine. A British New Wave pyschodrama where status games get dangerously personal.
