Art is not a mirror held up to society, but a hammer with which to shape it
#SSB2016 Aftermovie
THE THEME
|
“House for Disobedients” is an international educational forum in scriptwriting, linking various genres through a documentary framework. In the span of two week established and novice writers of scenarios, theatre plays and all other sort of scriptwriting will participate in lectures and workshops led by well-known European and Balkan teachers and practitioners. The program includes four lectures on topics of writing for theatre, movies, dance and performance-installations and three workshop (five days each) – scriptwriting for short films, for theatre and for audio-theatre and audio-installations.

THE LOCATION
|
|
Base of the camp will be the building of a former professional-disciplining boarding school in Gabrovtsi which was transformed by the art group Duppini into a centre for art residencies. Here in the recent past were sent to study, work and live under-age delinquents to be “re-educated” in order to reintegrate into the norms of society. This former “correctional institution” which is marked by multiple stories, lives and traces of the past is the starting point and at the same time a thematic framework of the “House for Disobedients” camp.
The practical work that will be conducted in the workshops will be inspired by the documentary materials that can be found in this boarding school, as well as by numerous land-art artworks spread in the area. The goal is for the participants to experience and understand how the same material is interpreted in writing for various performing and audiovisual arts. |

It was a wonderful and very complete experience: a unique mix of the professional, personal, social and cultural aspects of creative life. Both serious and focused, humorous and flexible, individual and collective. A glimpse of an ideal world

Excellent idea of bringing artists from all over the world in one place. I like the idea of having such an event in an isolated space like the boarding school, it brings people together and helps them remain focused in their work

It was a great initiative and went perfectly well. Starting with the organization, all the lecturers, the participants, the place and the hosts, the volunteers - everything fit together very well. It was extremely interesting, intensive and curious to be part of. There was a lot to learn and experience with different media of expression and in the company of professionals with different perspectives and backgrounds. The atmosphere was nice, friendly and provocative in a very creative way. More events like this should happen for sure
