Lenas Gespenster is an evaluation of the post-communism condition. This project questions the aftermath of that political and cultural vision. The Soviet Union's founding father, deceased 80 years ago, conjures a time of turmoil, revolt, and the Red Terror. Lenin's ghost haunts not only the museum which bears his name in Volgograd, but also our consciousness. Today what is left of the social utopia where community spirit and the integrity of individuals supposedly reigned? What of the critique of capitalism? Does anyone still believe in Heaven on Earth?
Lenas Gespenster is a laureate of the BBI 2007 creation contest.

A street performance by bankleer will be held June 30th from 11AM on, downtown Fribourg, between the railway station and the cathedrale.

A production of the BBI, carried out thanks to a contribution to culture by the Canton Fribourg. With the support of Fondation Nestl� pour l�Art.
