Dancers get into the action on a huge treadmill, both at the mercy and in control of this unpredictable machine. An impressive performance!

On this unusual set with its confined space, movement is as constrained as it is exalted, fiery and acrobatic. In turn or as a group, the quintet tackles themes such as surpassing oneself, identity, living together, freedom, breathlessness and the multitude of feelings and sensations that makes existence complex.

This environment is a meeting place for characters seeking to understand their place in the world. They play with time, suspending action in space to explore the details of a gesture or a question. The dancers are sometimes at the mercy, sometimes in control of this intriguing, unpredictable, mobilizing machine. The mercilessly rushing belt becomes a metaphor for the passage from childhood to adulthood, for the path we travel and, more broadly, for the life we must learn to tame.
