War Maker

Having lived within an ongoing exile, Karim’s life is standing at the crossroads. The performance itself mirrors his war memories. When his friend lost his arm during the Gulf War, Karim the child, whose life was shaped by three wars even more, became interested in the Silver screen, especially sci-fi movies. In different countries he arrived to, a war took place. Was he a War Maker?
Based on Palestinian artist Karim Shaheen’s true story, War Maker is a voyage into Karim’s dreams and delusions.
War Maker is a multidisciplinary theatre performance that blends Visualart, new media with documentary and object theatre.
