Integratieplan #2: Alles is Perspectief

What happens when you grow up in an AZC, where you are introduced to the perspective of people from halfway around the world, from Eastern Europe to West Africa? When you grow up with a welfare family in a Brabant farming village and work your way up to the cultural elite in the big city? It gives you a hyper-diverse circle of friends: from gay to homophobic, from feminist to sexist, from anarchist to journalist, from ex-con to former minister, from pro-refugee to ex-refugee who became anti-refugee. Everywhere you hear hard truths for which there is no room in the mainstream media.

In Alles is Perspectief, Saman takes the audience along the painful areas that divide the Netherlands today: fascism, racism, inequality, homophobia, LGBTQIA+ rights, the excessive woke culture and the role of the media in this polarization. However, Saman does not do this from behind a safe wall of opinions: he digs, researches, talks to those around him and crawls into the skin of the other - however uncomfortable that may be. Not to condemn, but to understand.

Alles is Perspectief is not a performance that makes you relax in your theater seat. This is cabaret that grates, stings and invites you to redefine your position. But always with humor. Always with love. Always with the realization that the perspective of the other - no matter how messed up it seems - comes from a source that is closer than you think.

"Maybe our pain is not in what is being done to us, but in the idea that no one understands us." - Saman Amini
