Beside Oneself, a project by Nataša Rajković and Ivan Penović staged by the Festival as part of the Port of Dreamers project co-funded by the European Union Creative Europe programme, deals with migrations as an inevitable, unceasing social process and all the spaces we define, outline with migration or leave empty by our departure. The dramaturgy of the project is based on the form of previously held workshops for migrants, which enables different performative modes of expression which, in satirical, tragic and pseudo-documentary tone, expose all the pointlessness of attempts to contextualise the other and those who are different with bureaucratic language of the European relation towards migrant experience. The Festival Drama Ensemble will be led by Nikša Butijer.
