"Lysistrata", an ancient comedy by Aristophanes, bases its plot on the sexual strike of women. The cultural remoteness of this text inspires us to take it even further - beyond the earthly atmosphere - and touch on the universal anxieties of humanity. We ask fundamental questions about the rights of all genders and about human survival on Earth if it abandons love by focusing on armed conflict.
However, since it is a comedy, it is a science - fiction show that touches on all these issues with detachment and sometimes bitter humour.
