In 1992, Reza Abdoh wrote and directed a movie called The Blind Owl. It uses many of the actors who have come to constitute the Dar A Luz company, including Tony Torn, Tom Fitzpatrick, Juliana Francis, and Tom Pearl. It will disappoint those who approach it looking for a film analogue of the “faster and louder” aesthetic that critics have used to characterize much of Abdoh’s stage work. The Blind Owl does use a variety of techniques reminiscent of his stage direction, giving it an unusual theatricality.
A raucous, angry exorcism of relationships and assorted fears, shadowed by the Big One: the plague of AIDS.
