Thus begins Lucidity, a psychological drama about Lili, who suffers from dementia. Once a celebrated composer and singing teacher, she now depends on her son, Dante, who has given up his music career to care for her. Dr Klugman’s neurological research into the relationship between music and memory brings them into contact with a young clarinettist, Sunny. Marked by loss, the four characters are connected by music.
In a society increasingly confronted with dementia and Alzheimer’s, Lucidity touches on themes such as identity, mortality and the price of ambition. Through a thoughtful play on time and space, Mathilda du Tillieul McNicol and Basia Bińkowska create a visual world that reflects the disorientation in Lili’s mind. The last word is due to a newly acquired lucidity: ‘I see more clearly than I have in years.’
