Summary/Abstract: Krzysztof Warlikowski speaks about African Tales Based on Shakespeare. The director reveals details of his work on the script, which is a compilation of Shakespeare’s dramas and a novel by Coetzee. He also explains the structural function played by the monologues of Desdemona and Portia (written by Wajdi Mouawad) and the animated film Death and the Maiden. Next the talk turns to the play’s central themes, i.e. exclusion that less concerns individuals than every one of us; the father-daughter relationship, in which incest plays a role, and the accusation of molestation; the clash between old age and wisdom; and death. The director also speaks of building a relationship with the audience in his plays.
