Impatience is growing as we await seeing the 11 films selected for the 2012 edition of the Italian Cinema Days on screen… fortunately, in the meantime, other artistic offerings are worth a look!
“In situ,” 2 actors will make us experience the wandering of a king and his fool.
Lear divests himself of power and bequeaths his kingdom. But he is caught up in deception, lies, and fear.
This “organic” interpretation of *King Lear* shows us humanity in its nakedness, exposed to a world it does not understand.
The uncrowned king is caught in a storm, from which no god will save him, while his fool continuously reflects back to him the image of his own downfall…
Who but a fool can emerge unscathed from a “world without quality”?
Jérome Kokaoglu and Frédéric Fialon, from the Main d’Oeuvre collective, are alone on stage and portray the different characters of this drama, bathed, in this adaptation, in gentle madness.
