Das Hamlet-Syndrom

Film | Berlin-Premiere

The war in Ukraine has profoundly affected the young generation since 2014. A few months before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, five young men and women in Kiev took part in a unique stage production that attempts to connect their experiences of war with those of Hamlet’s dilemma. For each of them, the stage is a platform to pour out their grievances and concerns about Hamlet’s question of »to be or not to be,« which in turn reflects a dilemma that applies to their own lives.
