“very contemporary” should feel fresh, modern, edgy...
It’s about love being the person on the inside.
The current refugee situation could be referenced or used as a launch pad.
Ethnically mixed cast (eg Viola could be from Africa - but this is not definite)Cast quite young
Viola mourning for her twin an important driver for the plot.
Key images of this might be the shipwreck, the idea of things being ripped apart.
- things that are broken being put back together- finding home and your soulmate- blurred lines (eg gender)
About perspective; it’s one thing if you look at it one way, and another from a different angle.
The strongest visual reference the sculpture of Bruno Catalano
Twelfth/Night flipped title treatment With texturing/distressing the font
