Theory of Religion

Théorie De La Religion

Synopsis

The staging is simplistic: a doll, a man and some tools. All these elements are brought together in a basement lit by several spotlights. The Man is a body and a conscience. His role is the infinite potential of sadistic will. The sexual drive, fueled by alcohol and drugs, is so strong that it erodes the carnal envelope, from the epidermis to the nerves. The doll, a model for medical simulations, is nothing but plastic. Plastic, but icon, symbol and, consequently, marked by unheimliche. A man possessed by a libidinal frenzy and a doll with feminine forms.
