1st of september 2006, center for cultural decontamination belgrade
saga is an intermedial performance which explores the family system in the protected
setting of 'petite borgois' social order, and origines of narcisme as the factor of disturbance
of first and the most important emotional relations that we establish. based mainly on gesture
and non-verbal action of symbolic characters, the performance explores
sensitive,
supressed, never
articulated levels of family disorders. from the point of
view of
a
growing up kid, we reveal
the symptoms of systematical family patology,
a world
where the children are
raised
according to a pattern within "small and
ordinary" family circle in which
emotional
knots
stay tied for the lifetime,
blocking every kind of
freedom
or
creativity.
