Mattatoio 68 (Run 5)

In a dystopic future a group of migrants must face the arduous challenge of the “Border”: are they going to be able to access the better world they crave for? Who is going to get selected and be allowed to enter the United States of Europe? Will their stories be truly listened to by the fearsome Commission? This is the starting point of our ambitious project: a live experience open to a non-larpers audience. During the event, participants were guided through the exploration of the theme of migration, gaining a “first-hand” experience of the frustration, the desperation and the hope of those crossing the sea. By designing this event we decided to investigate our contemporary age through the powerful mean of larp, reflecting upon borders in an all too real dystopia. An harsh experience, too close to reality.
