A Collage about the Political Inner State of Syria
A man is beaten up after having passed through one of the countless checkpoints in Damascus. He falls into a coma. This tragic incident calls forth painful experiences from recent years: the family has painstakingly come to terms with their father’s dramatic death, but it now seems impossible for it to cope with Taim’s coma. Director Omar Abusaada and author Mohammad Al Attar have constructed their play on the basis of witness reports, the voices of relatives and hospital staff – and on the imagined thoughts of Taim, who perhaps can feel that his home has become a more cruel and strange place.
