In Cerca di Teatro (1975)

Reportage about Odin Teatret's presence in Southern Italy. Theatre as a barter. Between May and October 1974 Odin Teatret moved to Carpignano Salentino, an isolated community with no previous experience of theatre. When the local people asked who they were, the actors answered by showing their training and open-air performances and asking the villagers to present their traditional dances and songs in exchange. The film follows the evolution of these bartered performances between Odin Teatret and the villagers of the Carpignano area.
