Where does suffering come from?

AWW SHIT, HERE WE GO AGAIN.

How is it possible that, in this inexplicable state of existence, experience, or whatever you choose to call it, we feel bad? BRUH. Why can't we feel good all the time? Why do we have to suffer? Why do problems keep arising? Why can't things simply be okay?

Moreover, if you step back and look at it all from a distance, it seems that life makes absolutely no sense. Everything human beings invent for themselves is nothing more than a collection of mental fabrications. Even though we already know this, we continue to suffer, fear, lose our minds, kill, worry, scream, run, cry, rage and torment ourselves.

DAMNN...

Pathetic.

What else goes on inside a murderer's mind? Can killing become routine? Is it possible for death itself to become banal?

For the first time in the festival's history – the Baltic Student Šķūnis (Barn). A production by students of the Latvian Academy of Culture. Based on motifs from William Shakespeare's Macbeth.

Important information for visitors: This performance contains strobe lighting effects.
