Because You Never Asked
Because You Never Asked
Chronicling a moment of intergenerational exchange. Based on discussions
between creator Roger White and his grandmother, Marianna Clark, about a
hidden life under the Nazi regime. Blending a haunting soundscape,
featuring recorded conversations of grandmother and grandson, with
evocative choreography that embodies memory. A cautionary tale
highlighting the perils of anti-immigrant narratives, through stories that
pivot between humour and darkness, documenting the slow march toward
authoritarianism. A heartwarming reminder to honor the wisdom that came
before us and hold on to the memory of those we cherish most. From the
creators of 2023's hit Papillon.
