A man within whom the battle memories still resonate, and his choreographer partner meet on stage. Together they try to portray the sensations and feelings that exist within him every day for already 30 years, as well as within her since she is with him. Trying to express something, tell something, process something, heal something, resist something, feel something, aiming to give form to the unseen. Maybe, by doing so, there will be a little less war, outside and within.
Trigger warning: the show includes sensitive content and noises that may trigger stress response.
