La Linea
by Michael Bijnens
Chapel
[recommended for ages 16 and up]
A bloody war is being waged between drugs cartels, the police and the army in the Mexican border town of Ciudad Juárez. Right on the US-American border, excesses and unparalleled violence keep erupting. When a poor writer arrives to the area and expresses his interest in finding out what happened during a massacre in a rehab clinic for drug addicts, he sets in motion a train of events that he soon loses control of. »He« plays exclusively himself, »She« plays all other roles. A dark, poetic and enthralling dramatic text of great depth about various aspects of forced migration.
"La Linea" will premiere as part of Remmidemmi. The Resistance Festival and can be seen on 7., 8. and 9. October 2022 at Route 5: Guerillas.
Der Festivalpodcast »Remmidemmi/Hinterbühne« gibt Einblicke in die Köpfe hinter den Stücken.
Im Gespräch beim Podcast #08: Florian Huber und Jürgen Popig
