Akin's dream of the Ottoman empire
by Akın Emanuel Şipal
Director: Stefan Bachmann
ACT
With Turkish surtitles
Alter Ego doesn't have it easy. His plan to write a play about the Ottoman Empire doesn't quite work out. In search of inspiration, he drifts through run-down Gelsenkirchen on his e-scooter. Suddenly, a talking half-horse appears and lets him know that he is the chosen one, the bottleneck for the new story. The cloud of dust whirled up by the e-scooter becomes a sandstorm from another world. Alter Ego is drawn into his own story and ends up in the middle of the Ottoman Empire; between family dynasties and claims to power, Alter Ego reflects on the promising rise of an empire that ultimately came to a standstill.
