All the Invisible Things

This is an uncompromising insight into four inextricably linked destinies. Only by means of interweaving individual episodes are the central themes realized to the full, like the isolation among the urban masses and the impossibility of communication. The spectator experiences a day, a night and the day after from the perspective of a group of people, focusing on three youngsters in the amphibian-like state between childhood and adulthood. Snap-shots of young, unrestrained people attempting to cope with their feelings and their surroundings. What they actually need at this moment are limits, reference points and hope. But what they signalize is the opposite. The problems of their parent’ generation are, however, no less difficult. In an environment permeated by a sense of loss, where love has been extinguished and the problems of parenthood have to be reconciled with marital crises as well as individual needs, they attempt to understand their children, or at least to rescue whatever can still be saved. The director worked without a fixed screenplay. And in working with the actors, the director attempted to preserve a considerable degree of authentic interaction, and by the use of improvisation and co-operative techniques of role development, to permit the greatest possible freedom of movement.
