MY DEER HUNTER

FOUR VETERANS STRUGGLE TO GET BACK TO LIFE

Winner of the Reumert Award 2021: Performance of the Year

Four war veterans are fighting their very own battle trying to find their way back into the world. A battle in which they challenge their PTSD, their shame and their lack of confidence in the most ultimate and exposed way.

With the film classic Deer Hunter as a guide, fix+foxy invites four war veterans, who have served in Iraq, Afghanistan and The Balkans, onto the stage. In an attempt to recreate the life they lived before it all fell apart, the four veterans go back in time and revisit the traumatizing moments, that changed their life forever.
