Women are doing well. They are gaining ground in areas traditionally belonging to men: science, medicine, banking. On the downside, men are feeling increasingly insecure as a result. They have lost their identity a bit. In The Primal Club, four men reclaim their place in the world, but in an unexpected way: they claim pregnancy. Producing life should no longer be the sole right of women! Under the motto "We can do that too - but better" they embark on an absurd experiment with a blood-curdling outcome.Golden Palace is a master at filleting human functioning. "Razor-sharp, highly humorous and with the eye of an excellent anthropologist," the Volkskrant once wrote. In The Primal Club, the company examines the art of giving birth. Can men match the primal strength of women?
