Odin Teatret Performances
Commentary
Adam J. Ledger and Leo Sykes discuss Odin Teatret’s ensemble performance films, in terms of character, location, site-specific action and film-making process.
A film following the street performance Anabasis in Peru. It was an itinerant performance, based on exploiting the connections between the actors and the spectators who they encounter on their way.
A narrow catwalk between two flanks of spectators: ‘Maran Ata! The Lord is coming! A child is born in Bethlehem. He will destroy Jerusalem. Kyrie Eleison. He has not come to bring peace.’
