Inspired by Rolf de Heer’s film “Alexandra’s project” and Lars Norén’s “Demons”, HashArtTheater Groupspeaks about a form of violence that remains unseen;about a subject that although present is a powerful social taboo: the insidious psychological violence that women can endure in a family and in a marriage.
HashArt examines this unseen and murky side of violence through the story of Alexandra, a woman who decides to give her husband a very special birthday present: her true self. Rejecting the passive and guilt-ridden role of victim, she rebels against his humiliating, belittling and coercive behaviour.
She could be called Nora; she could be called Medea.But in this case she is Alexandra.
