THE ENCHANTING PORKERS
synopsis
Money is not enough anymore. Fame is the most sought-after currency. A journalist decides to do everything in her power to get a scoop, including fabricating a story. She will stop at nothing to succeed; she will destroy lives if she has to. Soon we discover that her supposed victims are more than willing to play the game, even if it means exploiting their own tragedies. It is hard to beat the ‘fame machine’, especially when it chooses to replace you with a newer model. Set somewhere between reality and illusion, The Enchanting Porkers is a satirical anti-musical dealing with the media clichés that dominate our everyday lives.
