Edmond follows the dizzy / Spiral trip to businessman Edmond Burke and his nightmare 48 hours in the New York underground, where looking for excitement and happiness, From the banality of his office and monotonous family life ends as a killer and later as a prisoner, most likely sentenced to life in prison. Rich in many parables, references to Hamlet and the Bible, interspersed with an extraordinary brutal language and aggressive scenes, The main question Edmond opens is the question of freedom. What is freedom actually? Does the search for freedom do actually, unnoticeable to become slaves to its (search per) freedom. Whether the cancellation / Limiting its desires makes it easier for freedom? Not by accident, Edmond's motto is : “Be careful what you want.” Ironically, Edmond declares that he is finally free and happy only at the end, After all the periphany, in jail, with extremely limited freedom of movement … In the time we live in, where we can easily have everything, When are we available to us, When our "rape" of freedom did not make the most unfortunate people in the history of mankind, David Memet's Edmond is more than necessary. No how a lesson, Because I don't believe in didactic theater / theater that sends messages, but as an opportunity to reflect all of us, To ask ourselves who we are, Where do we go and what do we want to be.
