The Angel and the Gamekeeper
A voice, torn between the stage and the fields!
Set in Rural Iran, this musical tale of love and fantasy revolves around Davood, a ten-year-old theatre kid, who finds himself torn between familial expectations and artistic aspirations, as he is forced to act as a gamekeeper during the night, shouting and sacring away wild boars from his father’s land, while practicing a musical play during the day.
