Little Devil and the War Machine

  • Australia

Florence is under siege and Leonardo da Vinci has been sold to a tyrant as their personal war engineer. But between building cannons and catapults, his wily apprentice (and lover) Salaì has other plans. A queer telling of Renaissance history told through masked physical comedy, Little Devil and the War Machine fuses camp satire and romantic farce in a battle between art, power and the heart.

Suitable for audiences 13+
