Human Violins – Prelude (multi-user version)

2023
World premiere
Immersive Competition

HUMAN VIOLINS – PRELUDE is a visually striking interactive world evoking the power of transformative music in the darkest of times. Inspired by a heartbreaking real fact: during the Holocaust, many Jews were allowed to choose only one object before being brought to the camps and some chose their violin. We follow the fictionalized story of Alma (15), a young violin lover inhabiting a world of terror. Through music, she can liberate herself. You are offered the chance to take her legacy further.
