A dramatization and performance with recording artist Anna von Hausswolff’s song Home, part of the String Theory Project at the Concert Hall in Gothenburg. An animated scenario is projected on stage during the performance. The animation consists of blank placards, with photographer Zemlianichenko’s iconic picture of the LGBTQ demonstrations in Moscow (during the summer of 2009) is slowly projected, together with some of von Hausswolff’s text. 40 people were arrested during the peaceful demonstrations and the city’s mayor referred to the protests as “satanic acts”.
