Life is a Dream

Life is a Dream is an adaptation of the Spanish Golden Age classic by Pedro Calderón de la Barca. Set in a dystopian future ruled by corporations, it tells the story of Segismund, heir of Poland Inc. who has been imprisoned from birth in a virtual reality by his father, Basilio. While top executives Astolfo and Estrella compete to take over the company, Basilio devises a test to see if Segismund will actually be the devastating and cruel ruler the stars foretold him to be. Meanwhile Rosuara comes looking for vengeance against a lover who scorned her, and stumbles into the middle of political conspiracy. With a combination of heightened language and straightforward storytelling, Life is a Dream examines the nature of fate and reality.
