Events on Saturday 7th November
“Based on a famous article published at the high of the pandemic in The New York Times, Homebound explores how structural precarity through caste, religion, class and economic pressures defines and limits the lives of the protagonists, two young men with dreams of escaping poverty. Two Days, One Night exposes our reality today. Workers pitted against workers just to survive. Neoliberalism has normalised precarity. Eroded workers solidarity. The Dardenne brothers’ concern is to explore what it feels like to lie under crushing precarity.”

“Finally, we (will be) gather(ed) (t)here today (Sunday 8th November) to lay to rest our dearly departed Big Papa-C. As the prophecy of Yeshua comes to light the fire in every individual willing and open to step into their divinity, the cruelty of the Roman rule fuels it's own demise, and so, this reprise cues our goodbyes, as we bear witness to tomb where evil lies.”
