Murkus is inspired by a painting by the Palestinian artist Suleiman Mansour, Jamal Al Mahamel, on which a man wears an entire city (Jerusalem) on his back. In deadlift Murkus investigates how much a person can wear. Where is the breaking point? When does the fight against destruction turn into an act of destruction? With a Palestinian cast, deadlift brings a poetic tribute to the resilience of people in need. The music was composed in Palestine by Wouter de Belder.

Al-Harah is committed to building and maintaining a society in which human rights, democracy and freedom of expression are central. Boy Jonkergouw productions creates, produces and presents cultural expressions and educational programs aimed at human rights and social justice.

You can participate in a context program Building Conversation van Daan 't Sas beforehand: the plane. participation is free, please prior
About the context program: We all know it: situations in which we are not talking to the other person, but against the other person. There are words, sometimes too much, but there is no real exchange of ideas. Especially in conversations about politics, such as Gaza or Palestine, we often lose the other person. Under the name Building Conversation you can investigate new ways of communication together with artist Daan 't Sas. What if we approach a conversation as a work of art? How do we want that artwork to look like?

Following the performance there is a follow -up discussion in the hall with some of the actors and the director of the company, Marina Barham. This follow -up interview takes 45 minutes.
