A poetic birds' flight over the Holy Land
What if birds had the final say ? In the last of his four-part work about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, Yuval Rozman looks up into the sky and lets the birds have their say. From the air they look down on Israel and Palestine and the everlasting conflict between both regions. Without borders, judgment or passport they float over a divided country and try to understand why people on earth murder each other. Because sometimes you can see better from a distance than when you are in the middle of it.

“Birds build nests instead of walls. Just like people they only want one thing : space. Space to live, to sing, to build their nest. But their borders are invisible.” – Yuval Rozman
The Israeli theatre maker Yuval Rozman left his native soil and went to France. For this performance he went back for two months and stayed on the West Bank. Together with his dog Elio he stayed with both colonists in the Israeli settlements and Palestinian families. In the extremist colony of Nokdim where Palestinians are not welcome he met a settler who took care of wounded birds. Or he passes by a religious gathering where hundreds of rabbis pray for Trump to become president. These meetings, characterized by complexity and contradictions, were the basis for a performance that doesn't judge but observes. From a bird's eye view the black fable Au nom du ciel poses fundamental questions about boundaries, beauty, compassion and the human urge to fight.
After his studies at the National Conservatory of Tel Aviv theatre maker Yuval Rozman set up his own company in Israel in 2010. At the age of twenty he deserted from the Israeli army to settle down in Paris. There he started working on his four-part work Quadrilogie de ma terre, a cycle that is set against the background of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, in which every part highlights a different aspect : war (Tunnel Boring Machine – 2016), religion (The Jewish Hour – 2020) and economy (Au nom du Ciel – 2025)
