La guerra dels fills de la llum contra els fills de les tenebres

Acclaimed Israeli director Amos Gitai presents a dramatic spectacle that takes its inspiration from Flavius Josephus’s War of the Jews and is performed by a cast starring Jeanne Moreau and Jérome Koenig. Els Fills… is the Grec Festival of Barcelona’s first coproduction with Avignon, Athens and Istanbul under the aegis of the Kadmos network, a platform that enables these four Mediterranean theatre festivals to forge links and work together. The same pain, the same fear and the same despair found in all wars; that is what this impressive production transmits. We are invited to witness a chilling tale as it unfolds on stage in the manner of an oratory, told simultaneously by various narrators, in different languages, intonations and accents. This is a story about dignity, embodied in a production that transcends time and space to explore an experience that is, alas, also contemporary, universal.
