This unique piece transports the audience into a world where loss is not just the lack of something, but a life force, vigour that sustains us all. Sensuous and rich in musical nuances, this dance theatre production can be seen as a mythical walk through vast and varied emotional landscapes, leading to a place where it is possible to breathe once again. The starting point is a dramatic literary source of profound depth, telling the story of parental grief with passion. The music was composed by one of the most prominent and sensitive composers of our time, Osvaldo Golijov, who has won the Grammy Award twice. "His music came to me from within, from somewhere very far away,” said the director and choreographer of the production, Dóra Barta. "Straight to the bottom of my heart, from a place where there are no words, only feelings.”
The premiere was presented by Müpa Budapest as a joint event with the Badora Dance Company as part of the Liszt Fest.
