Die Vegetarierin PREMIERE

In the organizer's words:

after Han Kang

Yong-Hye is a very ordinary woman. She runs her household flawlessly and is always reliable. The perfect wife, according to her husband, with whom she coexists peacefully. Until one night Yong-Hye throws away all the animal products in the house and decides to go vegetarian. This is seen by her family as a subversive act that deeply outrages them. The parents intervene and try to break her resistance by force. Without success. In the end, Yong-Hye refuses all food and goes her own way, even if it threatens to end in disaster.

Nobel Prize winner for literature Han Kang unfolds a poetic and disturbing story about an extreme, albeit silent, female rebellion, raising the question of whether social structures can be changed.
