Amor Fati
An activist fairytale
Music theatre-film (2020)
Amor Fati is an extravagant plea for modesty based on Nietzsche's quote:
"Love of fate; the welcoming of all life's experiences as good."
When "Puppeteer," meets "Amor," he is instantly in love. The attraction is mutual but Amor can love Puppeteer only if he accepts Fati too. Fearing the capricious Fati, he repels Amor, and begins to design and recreate her as a puppet he can control.
