The play Puntila and Matti, his Hired Man is one of Bertolt Brecht's modern social criticism plays. It's about a landlord, seemingly ever-drunk, and his ever-loyal hired man, Matti.
The Story describes the Landlord Puntila's Relationship to his hired man, Matti, as well as his daughter, Eva, who he wants to marry off to an Attaché. But Eva herself loves Matti and so Puntila is put to a decision, to marry his daughter to either a driver or to a rich Attaché, while he also deals with his drinking problem.
The original German title is "Herr Pu(n)tila und sein Knecht Matti".
