“Objects on the loose are always in search of the rest of the plot” – Charles Jencks.
“And Mr. Biswas buys things, he acquired things, his wife Shama owns things of her own. Hemmed in by her dissent and discord, given to complaint, Mr Biswas marvels at the “endurance and uncomplainingness of inanimated objects”; and these many objects, which he houses, house him too.” – Teju Cole

This will be an early testing of material with feedback from the audience.
The viewing is free to watch, but you need to sign up in advance.
