Plankton tells the history of man in a tragicomic, visual spectacle with live music. How more control, the more there goes wrong. Touching, funny and poetic.
Tragicomic, confrontational and visual spectacle with live music
In a whirlwind duet between the man and the environment tells Plankton the 200,000 years long history of our species on earth in a tragicomic, confrontational and visually spectacle with live music. From the discovery of fire to the extinction of this predominant species: everything comes along in this visual performance full of inventive theatrical tricks and unexpected twists. In a classic frame show with dioramalike sets play two actors the earth; they let birds fly, waves sway and mountains grow. The third player, the human being, tries grip to get a hold on that world. But the bigger the urge for control, the more there goes wrong. What follows is a inevitable chain reaction of failure, hilarious and touching at once.
