Is the digital transition inclusive? Is the technology democratized enough to allow everyone to broadcast their story and their vision of the world?

 

In their lecture, filmmaker and journalist Rym Haddad and theatre director and cultural activist Cyrine Gannoun discuss the recent events of digitalization in art and theatre and their effects on cultural landscapes. As practitioners from Tunisia, they especially ask for solutions to ensure the future of a theatre which does not exclude, through its technical-technological performance, the countries that have very limited access to the necessary material resources.

And now WHAT end is near?
