Is violence permissible and if so,
to what extent?
Those questions, those issues.
Vintage Dostojevski, vintage LAZARUS.
Idiot, Karamazov, Crime and Punishment… De Lazari have become true Dostoevsky specialists over the years. As the final piece in the adaptation of his four great novels, LAZARUS set to work with Boze Geesten.
The story takes place in a small, wealthy community in the countryside, where the peace is disturbed when the young generation wants to unleash a revolution out of dissatisfaction. Their approach is reckless and destructive, without a concrete plan for the future.
Nihilists and socialists, God and the old power structures… Angry spirits and demonic innocence alternate in a parade of passionate characters who come to fight for their honor and their faith (even those who believe they believe in nothing).
