sequel Battle II is a 40 mins filmed Music Theater created in 2018

Battle explores the issue with overloading information. 

The contemporary world is full of subtle battlefields, and we all stroll along through their midst to a lesser or greater degree. The struggles are both personal and relevant to a greater outside world. They make us feel hopeless and insecure physically, psychologically, spiritually, often all of the above. It is, in fact, worse when we legitimize our feelings of invulnerability and open way for the Boiling Frog strategy to be easily used on us in an effective way. After a while, we surrender voluntarily before realizing the potential damage.

 

BATTLE is a music theater expressing through irony the dilemmas and challenges that surround each one of us in the current era.
