Alpha, a completely independent totally crowd-funded project, is exploring new ways of artistic and social action. We feel that cinema is a very young art form that is evolving and in constant conversation with other art forms, hence a fusion project between cinema and performance.
Alpha is a live performance in which the protagonist plunges into her dark subconscious onstage, while a feature film inundates the entire stage. The film blends in the set design forcing a dream to coexist with reality, and a human touch to hold hands with a cinematic cut - two worlds unfolding in unison before the eyes of the audience.
In the film -inspired by the myth of Antigone- Alpha is forced to watch her hanged brother rot in the middle of a burnt forest, until the authorities decide that she has been punished enough. On stage, Alpha re-inhabits her family house, dives into her memorabilia and caves in her absurd psyche. The Transmedia Cinematic Performance lets cinema serve as an actor on stage, in a contemporary representation of a modern day Tragedy.
