HoHiHu (The Horrible History of the Humanity)

Street performance that plays with the atrocities human beings are capable of committing. Specifically, male human beings. And to talk about it with humor, which might be the only weapon that can truly change something.

Sinopsis

The construction work for a [car park] has come to a halt due to the discovery of a possible archaeological site.
A renowned archaeologist has been brought in to explore the area, but the team that had been promised to assist her (and which she has been waiting for days) has ultimately not shown up.
So, the expert must rely solely on the help of one of the construction workers… and the security guard watching over the site.
The excavations will uncover bombs, swords, weapons, and other hostile artefacts.
As they dig deeper into the layers of history, we will see that destruction is an inherent part of humanity.
A reality so harsh that we are left with no choice but to face it with humour. Because humour is the remedy.
