Overview

A self-taught painter, singer-songwriter, and actor, Bek ventures into theater directing, leaving actors perplexed with his unconventional methods. His directions unfold in chaotic scenes on stage, filled with nonsensical situations: people howling, a solitary woman's confession, another woman lip-syncing a song—all presented in no particular order. Meanwhile, Bek himself takes on various roles, including that of a primitive man, a singer, and a narrator.
