Two Saints : work-in-progress showing from the creators of The Other Mozart and 7 Magdalenes. Who are the figures who emerge as guiding lights in one’s life? For one girl growing up under a totalitarian regime in 1980s Poland, two people had a profound influence: Popieluszko (a young priest of the Solidarity movement) and Elvis.
Two Saints grapples with the existence of light and darkness in our lives, of earth, flesh and spirit, of homeland, dreams and immigration.
