Die Eingeborenen von Maria Blut
By Maria Lazar
Stage version by Lucia Bihler and Alexander Kerlin
Burgtheater, Vienna
Fear, superstition and defamation shape the incidents occurring in a village community. Lucia Bihler and her team have found an impressive language of imagery that already forebodes the horrors of an impending political transformation.
