EXCERPTS FROM REVIEWS:
You probably think that if horror had color, it would be black? Wrong: horror camouflages itself, hidden under pink, mint and light blue. Horror at first glance appears soft and friendly. Anyone who is treated at the Shame Therapy Center will see this sooner or later.Julia Mark stages the stages of emotional training by constructing poignant, nightmarish images. She doesn’t steer the piece toward comedy, though that would be easy; she fills it with a strangely familiar atmosphere of confinement. Everyday situations seem threatening. Days become repetitive and tiresome.Atisheh Hannah Braun and Claudia Kucharski step by step unleash the hidden emotions of their heroines. They expressively create the characters of an independent feminist and a wife and mother attached to tradition. They provide the audience with enormous emotions: we sympathize with them, we suffer and despair with them. They make us genuinely move to the center of training feelings.
