Śmierć Kalibana – Caliban’s Death

In her satire ‘Śmierć Kalibana’, Magdalena Fertacz imagines the privatisation of immigration and unmasks the cynical views of Eurocentric benefactors. The audience is witness to a perfidious artistic experiment: in an aid agency competition a prize is given to the best slum dwelling, and the winner is allowed to emigrate – a modern version of the slave market. In an interactive performance broadcast online, the immigrant competes in the final round with a Polish heart-disease sufferer. In the process, the two competitors not only lose their most important body parts but also their human dignity.
