About this event

An actor alone in a shuttered theater channels the corrosive wit of Thomas Bernhard in Mathieu Amalric’s Maîtres anciens – Comédie. Bernhard’s reflections on art, authority and frustration acquire a new setting in a world disrupted by the closure of public life.

The 80-minute feature is in French with English subtitles. It is preceded by Amalric’s 16-minute C’est presque au bout du monde, featuring Barbara Hannigan; the complete program runs approximately 100 minutes. Tickets through Anthology.
