ABOUT THE MOVIE
Like a spark that briefly lights up the darkness, the documentary film Black Wool bears witness to the successful run of the documentary theatre performance of the same name — as well as its unforeseen end.
The documentary Black Wool follows the process behind the theatre production of the same title, created by Igralke Collective. In the performance, four members of the Oaza Association from Rijeka share autobiographical stories about their experiences with homelessness. The film traces the journey of the play — from preparation and performance, through its success and touring, to the eventual inability to continue due to tragic events.
