Dolls Speak. Fontane as a Series. Quitt Breaks All the Rules.

In the new episode of the SOONER Podcast we talk to Uri Urech, the writer and director; and Barbara Naegelin, the soundtrack creator, about their experimental series QUITT. Why mannequins instead of actors? And how does music become part of this surreal world?

Quitt; Uri Urech

QUITT stands out for its unusual storytelling style, where mannequins instead of actors take the leading roles. This unabashedly transparent and also humorous assemblage of real landscapes with artistic, animated, and manipulated elements creates a surprising visual language.

In terms of content, QUITT draws on the novella by Theodor Fontane. With its profound, dramatic themes of power and powerlessness, religious zeal, as well as guilt and atonement, the series challenges viewers to embrace a new form of storytelling.

All of this is discussed in the new episode. Enjoy listening!
