Segnale d’Allarme- Red Flag

The stage play La mia battaglia becomes a virtual reality film: the viewer sits in the audience of a performer who manipulates them.

Synopsis

A performer, perhaps a comedian, perhaps a hypnotist, hosts an entertainment show and sweeps the audience along in a crescendo of proclamations, anecdotes and appeals, towards an unexpected turn. In the headset the viewer sits in the front row, part of the crowd, and slowly realises they are inside the story.

Production notes

From the play written by Elio Germano and Chiara Lagani, the film is directed by Elio Germano and Omar Rashid and co-produced with Infinito and Riccione Teatro. Not a recording of a show, but a work built so that the viewer becomes one of its characters: among the first experiments in virtual reality theatre.
