Jar is based on the fifth volume of ‘Isolation’ (Die Kalte 1981), the autobiography of Austrian author Thomas Bernhard. Bernhard was well known in his fight against hegemonic structures in Austria. In his plays he continuously dealt with the notions of isolation and self-destruction. The work relates to that notion of isolation, where it seems that the individual is trapped in a hopeless position, but manages to transform and eventually become emancipated. Click to view
