Iraqis Bodies / Crying of my Mother
Frankfurt am Main, Germany
15 Nov '09
Muhanad Rasheed’s dance piece focuses on three men and one woman. They each have a different religion and live together in peace. But slowly avarice and evil creep into their lives. Violence and murder force them apart. „Crying of my Mother“ is infused by the experience of war and civil war in Iraq. It demonstrates how people become alienated from one another, brutalized, and how they harm and finally lose each other.
