Overview
At the request of Dutch documentary filmmaker Judith de Leeuw, the Dutch prominent theatre director Ruut Weissman is directing a solo performance about the power relationship between a teacher and a student, between an actress and a director. Both Ruut Weissman and actress Harriët Stroet have personal experiences with this theme. The documentary shows how the mutual relationships between director, documentary filmmaker and actress are brought into sharp focus during rehearsals and how the events on and off stage are always intertwined.
