Lambda
Collective writing
Five anonymous thirty-year-olds. They share some kind of solitude and the urge to meet and know people. They are free thought idle spirits, whose lives and paths cross each other as in the streets, without a purpose or a promise. But something essential is at stake for each one of them every time they meet. Consciously or not, they all feel the world oversteps them. Too big, too huge, too complex to let them forge their own character. Enhanced with various literary forms (private diaries, novels, interviews...), the writing of this « tale of sick normality » constantly shifts from realism to dreamlike fantasizing. If the characters and the situations exposed here set foot on the concrete world and can easily be acknowledged as such, they all distil a partial mystery in a tragic scope. A naked stage, straightforward and pure, wherein video seems pervasive, ensures the spectators are transported by a flux of sensations and absorbed reveries which endlessly question the way we see the world, sending us back to our own intimacy.
Moebius was founded in 2008 by a group of young actors who graduated from Montpellier Conservatoire. Lambda is their third creation.
