SYNOPSIS

Stromboli, Sicily. Kristin Linklater (voice teacher and text coach) leads an international group of actors through an exploration of their own voices and several tales from Ovidius’ Metamorphoses. An island that is an active volcano, Stromboli, offers an inspiring set for this kind of exploration: the voices and the stories resonate in an environment of fire, water, wind, black sand and rocks. It is a constantly changing landscape evoking elemental metamorphoses. The film thus documents Linklater´s approach to voice and text, and the first phase of the unusual process that eventually led to a theatre production called Metamorphoses – 7 Tales From Ovid. The actors and their voices change in response to the stimuli of the environment, the Linklater technique, and the images of the stories.
