People in search of their own path and identity, united by the same inclusion in onehistorical period, in an era like the present one that brings dizziness and bewilderment. Individuals who trace new trajectories and look for new ways to recover their own route,
in a moment of exile from normality. A tale of lost moments and relationships, coupled with the search, in one's memory, for images and landscapes that used to be familiar and comforting to us. A dream journey to rediscover one's self, now lost. When we think we
have nothing left to lose, the hope of a new beginning brings us back to the primary instinct of resistance and struggle for life.
A choral dance that plunges us into a whirlwind of lines and trajectories. These meet and intertwine, in an apparent primordial chaos until the return of quiet, which brings with it the choice of abandoning oneself to a rediscovered hope, in view of a new rebirth.
A praise of care, of paying attention to others, amplified by the words taken from the poems of Mariangela Gualtieri.
