COSMIC SISTERS. A WARNING CALL & THE RETURN OF THE KING'S DAUGHTERS
In her solo performance, Greek actress Lydia Polyzoi rewrites Hecuba's lament with her own experiences as a woman, artist and citizen in contemporary Athens. From her voice emerge others: the "cosmic sisters" from South Africa, Cameroon, Iran, Canada/Germany and Greece.

Together they create a walk-in radio play - a sound space where forgotten daughters of ancient stories and erased cultures return through music, poetry and sound. Between pop, opera, indigenous chants and electronic textures, they compose Songs of Future Care and open a sonic journey through colonial pasts and imagined futures.
