That hunger is eating you from inside / doesn’t let you go / tying you down with yourself / telling you, what to feel / you are confused / alert / anxious / paranoid / Madness / Things don’t mean what they mean

Strange life of senses, secrets of nerves in a hungry, searching and conflicted body.

Hunger – a physical state that conquers not only our body, but also our mind. Loosely inspired by the eponymous, partly autobiographical novel Hunger by Norwegian Nobel Prize-winning writer Knut Hamsun, the production presents and analyses the concept of hunger not only in terms of its physical nature, but also as a growing phenomenon of our time – a symbol of a man painfully feeling his emptiness and hungering for life, who tries to fill this emptiness and satiate his hunger in every possible way.
