Zuidpool - ALKIBIADES

In ALKIBIADES - Zuidpool's far-reaching adaptation of Ilja Leonard Pfeijffers novel of the same name - Sofie Decleir shines as Greece's most controversial politician; unable to choose between his boundless self-love and the general interest of his people. At the same time, he holds up a confronting mirror to us. Are we aware of the vulnerability of our democracies? Is the people itself capable of knowing what is good for the people? A gripping story in a world in which the democratic contract that we have concluded with each other threatens to be broken at any moment. A look into a system that is hitting its limits, but for which there apparently is no better alternative. Based on the book of the same name by Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer, published by De Arbeiderspers Bewerking and directed by Koen van Kaam Spel Sofie Decleir and Mona Lahousse Muziek Jorgen Cassier Kostuums Thomas Van Imschoot and Sam De Mol Dramaturgie Lore Meesters Licht Mark Van Denesse Geluid Daniël Stevens Video Jan Snoekx Met support of the Tax Shelter of the Belgian federal government via Perpodium
