1 - The Melancholy of Resistance

In a small European town on the outskirts of civilization, time seems to have stopped. The future offers little hope as an ominous, elusive threat looms over the inhabitants. A music teacher, a young dreamer obsessed with the cosmos, and anxious yet powerful women seek escape. The arrival of a bizarre circus disrupts the fragile balance. Inspired by László Krasznahorkai’s novel, this “cinematic opera” blends contemporary music with theatrical and filmic elements for a unique experience.
