The life of modern men is always full of anxiety: a cycle of lust, violence, suffering and sacrifices; the pressure of having to advance in a competitive society within a constant struggle of humanity; and the insecurity arising from committing various crimes and sins in the diminishing lives. Does the salvation of mankind only materialise when mankind courageously accept themselves and face their own trial? Sadari Movement Laboratory reinterprets the classic work of Kafka, The Trial, with its unique movements and theatre language.
Stepping beyond conventional theatre dialogues, Sadari Movement Laboratory is committed to physical theatre and believes actors can express the social and psychological states of their characters more poignantly through separate spaces and dynamic rhythms. They bring new life to the original text via kinetic images they have explored and created through collaboration.
