Heatwave

Synopsis

A millennial elegy for a world heading with breakneck speed towards the end.

During a scorching summer day, in crummy cottages and warm seas strewn with naked bodies, a live gallery of anti-hero figures sit attentively around the table of the holy Greek family, amongst doilies, television sets, fruit pits and juices, the glaring consequences of climate change, omnipresent gentrification and touristic exploitation.

They screw around watching videos from the 1990s, since things got pretty lame after that.

A performance for the Greek summer made of dreams and nightmares, paganism and voyeurism.

A performance about the never ending lazing summer under the infinitely bright Mediterranean sun.

Right until the grand moment or the grand finale.
