WARRIOR WOMEN
SPELADES PÅ GILJOTIN 10-12 OKT 2022
Teater Giljotin bjuder in till en Work in Progress som har planerad premiär 2021. Föreställningen har tagits fram i Amsterdam och har redan blivit unisont hyllat av kritikerkåren. Nu utvecklar Teater Giljotin pjäsen för en svensk publik. Medverkande: Karina Holla.
"Partisans, fighter pilots, mechanics and snipers.
Instead of brides, they became soldiers.
They fought like the men, rifle and bayonet at the ready.
The women carry guns that are sometimes bigger than themselves or as if the gun were a doll.
They were captured, tortured and killed.
Faced with terrible atrocities, they remained courageous and unyielding.
Women who were not allowed to be women for four years.
They kept silent for a long time. What they experienced at the front was too horrible.
But they have not forgotten.
Karina Holla, winner of the Theo d'Or 2018, the Dutch price for the best actress, tells their story.
The story of unimaginably strong women in unimaginable circumstances.
'There is only one way, to love mankind.
To understand human beings with love. "
