A unique meeting of puppetry, physicality, choreography and video projections depicts the chaos-filled journeys of people in exile.

Our bodies are our homes, the landscape of our lives. By using bodies as organic platforms for performance, geography and politics are physically expanded and emotionally transformed. Since its première, this innovative production has been received with utmost acclaim by international audiences. It strongly reminds us that our opinion of refugees is largely a matter of choosing our perspective. These people – whoever, wherever, whenever – are no different. In other circumstances, they are us.
