EXTRAORDINARY RENDITION

Action Hero

The battle for hearts and minds starts here

How does culture become a weapon of war? What connects a Britney Spears’ song to a global network of secret prisons?

Enter a cabin built from the same materials as the temporary detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, with the internal dimensions of a detainee’s cell.

Extraordinary Rendition uses video, sound and live performance to interrogate the colonisation that begins with the battle for hearts and minds.

Extraordinary Rendition launches on the Opening Night, with slots from 7:30pm – 9:30pm. Thereafter, it runs daily 1-3pm and 6-8pm, from 13-15 Feb and 17-18 Feb.

This one-to-one performance cannot be booked online. Please call the Arnolfini Box Office on 0117 917 2300 to reserve your 15 minute slot.
