Based on Palestinian artist Karim Shaheen\u2019s true story, War Maker is a voyage into Karim\u2019s dreams and delusions.
\nWith the mise-en-scene as a resonance chamber, the audience gets engaged with Karim\u2019s point of view straight from the show\u2019s beginning. War Maker is a multidisciplinary theater performance that blends visual art, new media with documentary and object theater.
\nHaving lived within an ongoing exile, Karim\u2019s life is standing at the crossroads where the performance itself mirrors his broken war memories. When his friend lost his arm during the Gulf War, Karim the child, whose life was shaped by three wars even more, became interested in the Silver screen, especially sci-fi movies. In different countries he arrived to, a war took place. Was he a War Maker?
\nLength of the performance: 50 minutes. <\/p>\n

Premiere in Belgium. 12+. 15\/18 euros. No words Performance. <\/p>\n
