In Kubita, an action-theatre turns into musical comedy when a group of Burundese prisoners perform scenes based on their experiences as victims of torture. Under the eyes of guards who have also been their torturers, the prisoners expose different facets of violence by turning them into absurd and paradoxical situations. Shot in 5 days and without any budget, Kubita is a raw art experience in which the creative process at the heart of theatre becomes a cathartic ritual of personal liberation.

 

KUBITA

Autor Maria Tarantino

 

Burundias kasutatakse kurjategijate ümberkasvatamiseks teatrikunsti. Improviseeritud lavastustes tuleb vangidel olla rollides, mis sarnanevad nende eelnenud elule.
