4 women, 1 mysogynist, 4 age groups and 1 urgent question...

Originally a poem; The Monotonous Drum is a spoken-word, live, theatrical performance intercut with increasingly self-aware film projections, exploring political discrimination under the overarching question: "at what age are we still too young...?"

Previous praise:
