Film cycle by Romeo Castellucci

The Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio belongs amongst the most radical representatives of »nuovo teatro« in Italy. Strongly marked by the influence of visual art, director Romeo Castellucci conceives impressive installation and sound spaces for his productions. »Tragedia Endogonidia« was developed in ten European cities from 2002-04 and is one of the most important works of the modern theatre in recent history. It relates Greek tragedy and its messages to our time and reality.

The word »endogonidia« refers to every simple life form which has both reproductive cells, thus allowing them limitless self reproduction and secession as per the immortality principle. »Tragedy«, however, implies the end of the hero, whose destiny is death from the beginning.

Castellucci creates a theatre of the unspeakable without dialogue; instead using suggestive images. It is without a doubt an exception in European theatre. Many of his pieces have already been hosted at euro-scene Leipzig. Now you have the unique opportunity to experience the film version of the violent cycle »Tragedia Endogonidia« in a single day.
