In the play-off against Clemens Setz, Patrick Findeis won the 3sat Prize worth 7,500 euros for his text “Kein schöner Land” in 2008. His juror Burkhard Spinnen voted for a text for which the author and his concern “have found a wholly coherent language where the characters’ contemporary problems perfectly harmonise with the ancient tragic themes of demise”.
