OIL

Sylvain Creuzevault takes on the last explosive, unfinished, and fragmented novel by Pasolini, written just before his death and published long after. To be discovered on December 10 and 11, duration 3h30 with a 20-minute intermission.

In a magma of information and virulent notes, we follow the misadventures of a man torn between his high public office in a hydrocarbon society, once fascist, and his private aspirations for a sexuality outside the norms. All set against the great tension (political, social, artistic) of a world that is rapidly shifting into a disgusting neo-liberalism, which resembles in many ways our own, that of the years of lead, between 1970 and 1980, in Italy, as elsewhere. The expression "head-on" seems appropriate, as the actors make the enraged language of Pasolini resonate and grapple with it...

A whole novel pushed to its limits, in a prophetic and polemical visual poem, that shakes up theater and our representations.
