meer Meer MEER
meer Meer MEER (French title: Bouteilles à la mer) is a free and contemporary adaptation of the traditional German tale The Fisherman and His Wife (Brothers Grimm).
It is the story of a woman and her fisherman who catches an enchanted fish: it grants wishes! The two enjoy it, make the most of it, use it… and abuse it. There is no limit to wanting. They consume their power: a set of pots and pans, a brand-new car, a satellite, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, mee(h)r, Mee(h)r, MEE(H)R ! * … and then nothing!
LaMule once again sets off down the path of the fairy tale, and what it questions in us today. In the age of waste, fast fashion, and over-packaging, the company puts its nose to the ground and composes a new piece: a score balancing body and sound, manipulation, tension, repetition. A sharp-edged language for a thorny question: our insatiable hunger for more, meeee(h)r!​
