Roberto De Simone: All is Fake

Former artistic director of the Teatro San Carlo, former director of the Conservatoire San Pietro a Majella, ethnomusicologist, mythologist, playwright, composer, director and reinventor of music theatre... Roberto De Simone, born in Naples in 1933, is an encyclopaedic personality, a phenomenon. Wil Boettger and René Pandis's "All is Fake" is a ritual journey into his spiritual topography, featuring the theatre and music ensemble Media Aetas. Various layers are intertwined, ranging from music theatre to the fantastic, magical and religious tangle of a traditional world that is dying out.
