This work is a fascinating exploration of modern love relationships, commitment, and psychological function. As a psychologist, from my perspective, the work tells a tale of what you might term "split personalities" of everyday existence, and coping with competing "voices" that have almost a delusional quality, exploring the limits of coherent psychological function. It explores the intricacies of passion, and tells the tale from both a male and female perspective.
The choreography was outstanding, and the direction showed the director's appreciation of contemporary dance's ability to express emotion that cannot be put adequately into words.
The music was carefully selected and composed to lend a very up-to-date feeling, yet the production tells a timeless story of the intricacies and contradictions of sexual relationships and it's place in eroticism and love.
Mr. Yakin's production may well be studied in film academies for it's inventive use of multiple actors to express and exhibit what many experience in their daily lives as discordant internal voices. And his use of dance and mime create a magical atmosphere of human expression.
In order to fully enjoy the work, viewers must allow the work to penetrate on it's own merits.
The work's release during the Covid debacle has prevented the distribution that the work deserves.
