I was surprised by how many horse and cart rigs where used (once outside of Bucharest) - I can't say they're quite as common as cars, but in some areas, especially once I got to Suceava, they made up full a third of the street traffic.

"The green-eyed Afghan girl became a symbol in the late twentieth century of strength in the face of hardship. Her tattered robe and dirt-smudged face have summoned compassion from around the world; and her beauty has been unforgettable. The clear, strong green of her eyes encouraged a bridge between her world and the West. And likely more than any other image, hers has served as an international emblem for the difficult era and a troubled nation." - Phaidon 55

Fitting the doors on to the carcass was quite tricky. The right door is about 5mm higher than the left.
KIJOTE KATHAKALI
Mind-blowing meeting between traditional theatre from Kerala and the world of Cervantes’s El Quixote has been presented in the margin of the commemoration of the 400th anniversary of the death of Cervantes in 2016 and to celebrate the Year of India in Spain.
“This innovative production, which is the result of multiple dialogues between tradition and contemporaneity and between two cultures, i.e., India and Spain, combines two different literary and theatrical cultures, two different ways of understanding art, theatre and imagination by staging a different version of El Quixote. It is performed in one of the most mysterious, richest and classical theatre traditions of the world, namely Kathakali theatre from southern India. The rich visual ritual and dramatic art is blended with the imaginary world of El Quixote, both of them bound in time (both originated in the seventeenth century) and fed by their own mythological and legendary traditions (knights-errant, heroes, and Ramayana and Mahabharata gods respectively). The universal story of the ingenious gentleman and his squire is reimagined for the 21st century. This surprising play makes us see our own culture from the other’s perspective in an encounter which questions the ethereal limits of a culture.
Performed by the Margi Kathakali Company’s performers and musicians from Trivandrum, southern India, which is one of India’s most prestigious companies and schools of Kathakali classic theatre”.
Co-production: Embassy of India to Belgium, Embassy of Spain to Belgium, Casa de la India, Indian Council for Cultural Relations, Festival Internacional de Teatro Clásico de Almagro, Laboratorio De Las Artes De Valladolid
