Rusalka

Text by Jaroslaw Kvapil
Lyrical fairy tale in three acts

Psychologically intense, civilization and nature, fears and longings, power relations and gender definitions collide.

Rusalka's loss of language clearly reflects fears of identification, exclusion, and existential fears. Director Sven-Eric Bechtolf reflects these emotional and thought states in a surreal, unreal, and oppressive world. Between a snowy desert and barren woodland, the story of the renegade water nymph is told in haunting images.
