CROWDFUNDING Live stream concert May 6, 8:00 p.m. - online via this website OPERA SPIEGL
A sneak peek for my new video work 'Spiegl': a live concert of a documentary opera. The concert is part of a crowdfunding to cover the last costs to finish the film. 'Spiegl' is a video work about the story of Yitschak Spiegl, a Jewish man who fled Czechoslovakia in 1988 in his early twenties and stayed in Austria as a refugee. The film can be seen as an experimental documentary, combining many different narrative forms, with opera as a main theme.
