Summary What can keep you alive when the whole world is against you, and you are still a child? Ema Cerná, the heroine of a story inspired by real life events, overcomes the hardships of a children's home, foster care and "juvy". The most essential part of the will to survive is the faith in yourself - faith that somewhere far away, maybe even in America, someone who cares about you is waiting. This performance of "Amerikanka" ("American Girl") is staged in a hyena cage and became the first Live Movie. Director Viktor Taus started a whole series of live broadcasts with it during the lockdown, which subsequently culminated in the LIVE phenomenon. The setting of the hyena enclosure allowed viewers to view the story in a new context for the first time. The paddock equipment became a full-fledged part of the performance and led to unrepeatable acting situations and performances. View more details
