UNCIVILIZED

“One man, one camera, a lot of questions…”

Mohammad sits before a
camera, answering his questioner’s questions. What begins as a
bureaucratic interview spirals into a raw exploration of what it means
to be “civilized” in a world that demands you justify your existence.
Using live camera, mixed media and his trademark sharp wit, Ahmad Meree delivers a searing and funny examination on citizenship, belonging, and the exhausting performance of assimilation. UNCIVILIZED
is a play that explores the journey of leaving home to become a refugee
and then a citizen. What is identity? A piece of paper?… we’ll see.
