SKÆBNEN - A Ghost Story in VR

SKÆBNEN combines new Danish drama with contemporary composed music in an immersive Virtual Reality experience. Through VR headsets, the audience follows a haunting story of a mother visited by the ghost of her son, lost in war. In a state of absolute grief, the mother prays to both God and the devil to get her son back. In her fragmented, sorrow-filled account, we hear about her son's life. He was a young, idealistic man who fought for a better world through well-intentioned activism. But as the world's geopolitical situation shifts, he goes to war for European values and falls. Yet is the ghost really her son?
