Meta-Phys Ed's new show based on Hannah Arendt’s controversial idea “The Banality of Evil”. The term was coined by the influential German-Jewish Political Philosopher Hannah Arendt’s in her 1963 book "Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil" covering the show trial of Adolf Eichmann, Nazi architect of the final solution. Directed by Jesse Freedman, THE BANALITY OF EVIL brings Meta-Phys Ed.’s genre bending ruckus to a noir mystery about how everyday people become war criminals.
