Vem dödade bambi?
06.10-24.11

Everything is inherited.
It’s been twenty years since a group of highschoolers shook the idyllic serenity of their villa town with the brutal deed. By now, everything is forgotten and forgiven – after all, they were good kids from good families.
Now, two of the perpetrators want to make a film about what happened.
A sleeping monster awakes.
The novel Who killed bambi? by Monika Fagerholm describes a brutal act of violence in a small town. The perpetrators get away with their violent actions because of their background and their status in society, Who killed bambi? is a story about how everything is inherited. Especially privileges.
The novel was awarded the Nordic Council Literature Prize in the year 2020.
This adaptation by director Jakob Öhrman takes place during the filming of the movie Who killed bambi?, and the adaptation continues the series of performances with the theme privileges at Teater Viirus.
