Sinopse do evento
The dilemma is as follows: how can you be successful in the very midst of consumer society without sinning? How do you preserve any sort of moral sense when the only law is the law of the market and everything has a price? Drawing inspiration directly from The Seven Deadly Sins , which Bertolt Brecht wrote in 1933 for a “sung ballet” with music by Kurt Weill, Astro Fingido created Dilema Capital – 7 Pecados na Vida Inusitada dos Artistas [Deadly Dilemma – 7 Sins in the Unusual Life of Artists]. “There are two main characters, Ana 1 and Ana 2, who tour Portugal with their theatre company with the objective of earning enough money to buy a house, or perhaps two.” One is a producer; the other, an artist. The first is pragmatic; the second, idealistic. With them, we embark on a journey to the world of the theatre, where artists find themselves daily confronted with the dilemma of resisting or giving in to the market’s deadly sins. A journey in reflective mode, “free from self-pity and rich in self-awareness”.
