Synopsis

13 artists gathered for one spectacle-<the Soldier’s Tale> by Igor Stravinsky. They practice, play, conduct, act, and dance to create a stage. The only thing that sets this stage apart from other stages is the fact that some of the artists are with visual or hearing impairments, and artists without disabilities.

Director’s Note

Disability cannot be a constraint on artistic activity. However, in real life, musicians with visual-impaired cannot perform an ensemble because they cannot see the conducting, and hearing-impaired dancers have difficulties in the process of creation and practice, which suited to hearing people.

The film <This Stage is Ours> focuses on the artists who make the performance with technological support.

This process is not only for a performance but also making an environment of the barrier-free of the art creation activity.
