On his way, he met a dog, whose fate was to spend the rest of his life in the animal asylum, because his old master had died. The dog was a great drummer, so the donkey asked him to come along with him. On their way they met a cock and a cat, who were also living in a desperate situation. Since they too were good musicians, it was only logical that they completed the band. And what nobody ever believed came true. After many adventures, they were finally on stage. Where?

In the "Little Tragedies", the main universal, eternal conflicts receive a specific interpretation: things, ideas and people collide. This is a "shifted" world, everything is at a breaking point here: the immobile moves, love triumphs on coffins, a subtle aesthetic sense leads to murder, and feasts turn out to be feasts of death.

Poster for Big Time

2022 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Big Time, the visual counterpart to Angel Olsen's album of the same name, is the story of light versus shadow told through a non-linear surrealist dreamspace that poses one central dilemma. ‘What lengths must one go through to let go of the past in order to step out of the darkness and accept one’s true self?’ It’s a story that targets deep rooted complexities such as how our unconscious deals with repressed sexual identity, the hardships of letting go of our past selves in order to step into self actualization, and the guilt we hold when dealing with loss.
