Herkules

Long-time portrait of a turkish Coaldealer in Berlin Kreuzberg. Ahmed is almost the last Coaldealer in Berlin. Since 2001 Volker Meyer-Dabisch is documenting the life and work of the family Özdemir. One marriage, one imprisonment, and much more is narrated, lots of pocketmoney is been begged. Oktay, one of the sons of the family is becoming a famous actor, tons of coals are carried, and in the end of the film Ahmed is back at the setout. His wife has left him, he has got no contact to his children anymore, the Coal- Shop is closed, but two constants are still there: He is carrying coals for some steady custumers and his humor which gives him the power to go on another time.

Body Double 35

For Body Double 35, Dellsperger takes the second scene from Xanadu. Played by choreographer/dancer François Chaignaud, a sprightly group of Muses emerges dancing from a painting on the wall. At an exhibition at the Swiss Institute in 2016 Dellsperger reproduced the wall painting and in a strange switch the creation of the set precedes the idea of the film, even becoming its trigger. The entire equilibrium of things seems to be affected : the shots are reversed and Kira dances backwards until she becomes one with the wall. The loop is closed.

Benjamin Britten: Billy Budd

The premiere of Benjamin Britten's Billy Budd in Madrid is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the Teatro Real's bicentennial celebrations. Its magnificent libretto, based on the novel of the same name by Herman Melville, tells the story of the sailor Billy Budd: a handsome, loyal, generous, strong, naive, and kind young man whose beauty and personality drive the ship's master-at-arms mad. Unable to control the situation, the master crucifies the naive young man without mercy. This new production by the Teatro Real is being presented for the first time in Madrid, in co-production with the Opéra national de Paris, under the direction of Deborah Warner, one of the great names in stage direction today.
