“I went looking for actual Ulysses, who could talk about their lives in exile, echoing the adventures and emotions experienced by Homer's Ulysses.” Through the prism of her camera, Christiane Jatahy wants to tell the story of modern exiles, forced by pain not to remember their past and prevented by their trials from thinking about tomorrow. Led from Palestine to Lebanon and from Greece to South Africa by a 3,000-year-old fiction, the Brazilian director wanted to end her journey in the Amazon rainforest, to film a land scarred by political struggle and environmental violence. In O Agora que Demora, the second part of a work she began with Ithaca (Our Odyssey 1), the audience is immersed in the fiction. Halfway between theatre and cinema, the show invites the audience, without their realising it, to weave the threads of the present, the threads of the world.
A dramatist with a degree in philosophy as well as a filmmaker and director, Christiane Jatahy grew up in Rio. Halfway between the stage and the image, her shows are like machines which explore the relationship between the actor and the audience, the border between fiction and documentary. She created Julia (adapted from Strindberg) in 2011, What if they went to Moscow?, a sequel to Chekhov's Three Sisters, in 2014, and The Walking Forest (based on Shakespeare's Macbeth) in 2015. In 2017, she adapted Jean Renoir's The Rules of the Game at the Comédie-Française. The diptych Our Odyssey began in 2018 with Ithaca. The Lingering Now - Our Odyssey II is her first creation at the Festival d'Avignon.
