NEESENIN

A solo performance by Babken Zakaryan following a hero lost in the labyrinth of his own soul and the poetry of Sergei Yesenin. After years of striving to emulate his idol, he begins to live another's life, re-experiencing the poet's tragedies and contradictions. This is a story about the search for identity and the influence of an imposed ideal, where imitation turns into a difficult test of self-discovery.
