OVIDIA

La Société de la Mouffette

Spain
Figure theatre, 60 min, in easy to understand English

Pills, Schlager music, sex and heavy weapons … Mr. Toad’s abandoned motel is a microcosm of hideouts and secrets, a transit area for dubious figures and broken hearts. Tragic runaways, fears, loneliness and isolation – these stories live in the walls, and the horror of the world resides in the furniture. With a poetic realism akin to Charles Bukowski, atmospheric dream sequences, and a helping of Raymond Chandler or Hitchcock, the story of the relationship between Toad and the strange permanent resident Ovidia unravels towards its fatal conclusion. But it remains unclear whether Ovidia’s death was an accident or a crime.

Founded in 2012 by the Spanish director Vera Glez, La Société de la Mouffette sees itself as an open stage for a range of artists, who collaborate to develop theatrical and performing arts projects in the area of puppet and object theatre for adults.
