Credo in un solo Dio (I believe in only one God) or Credo in un sol Odio (I believe in only one hate): the title of this work can be read in both ways. A work which combines the writing talent of Stefano Massini and the directing and acting talent of Manuela Mandracchia, Sandra Toffolatti and Mariangeles Torres. The stories run parallel, destined for a common epilogue in the holy land.

Eden Golan, a professor of Jewish History. Mina Wilkinson, more or less covertly working for a foreign army. And lastly Shirin Akhras, a Palestine student. Their points of view meet and move apart among improvised and highly risky encounters and dizzying contrasts, at times almost reaching the rash thrill of perfect harmony. But fighting for the same side is not allowed on the chessboard where everything relies on contrast.
In a piece which runs on three narrative lines without intercommunication, the story feeds on echoes and references, convergences and contrasts, and after an unstoppable crescendo, it culminates in the purifying and cursed fire of the umteenth sacrifice. An important acting challenge for a mosaic of sensations, reflections and states of mind, represented in a puzzle of solitude, where nothing is more disturbing than the absolutely endless confrontation with ones own ideals and beliefs.
Duration: 1 hour and 35 minutes with no interval
