A multidisciplinary theatre performance that blends visual art, live micro-cinema with documentary and object theatre. The War Maker is based on a real story of Palestinian visual artist Kareem Shahin. It provokes identity questions and follows his absurd journey with cruel brutalities that ultimately put him at the crossroads between love, dreams and family connections.
