I Want To Believe
First Time at Von Krahl Theatre — The World-Famous TV Show ’’Private Life‘‘
Triin Ruumet’s production I Want to Believe examines life through a lens that transforms the ridiculous into fundamental truth, and fundamental truth into something absurd. It portrays reality-TV life in all its fiery spectacle—lights, cameras, confession booths, and all the drama that comes with them. Yet when the fireworks of the television world are no longer enough, the life unfolding within the show begins to take on unexpected dimensions.
Triin Ruumet is an acclaimed Estonian film director whose distinctive vision and storytelling prowess have earned her a place on the international stage. Her original films, which she both writes and directs, have captivated audiences and critics alike, premiering at prestigious festivals such as the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival and the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival.
