The Rehearsal is a film about theatre and life itself. Its the story of a play rehearsal, from the first reading of the text to opening night, but more than that, The Rehearsal is a game we can only play if we imagine our life as a series of theatre scenes that can be rehearsed if something goes wrong, so we can make it better. A group of actors trying to rebuild their lives, in the middle of their midlife crisis, and a director who already lost her life along the way, are rehearsing Anonimo Veneziano, a sad story about love, life and death. The Rehearsal is also a search for language between cinema and theatre. A subconscious route from theatre to film language that tries to place the audience in an active theatre role instead of that of the lazy, passive cinema spectator. In a way, the audience is the ultimate main character of the film.
