… Schmidt, Frost and Daftsios in a loop. Schmidt, Frost and Daftsios are starting the machine. Schmidt, Frost and Daftsios are dancing.
This time Hanna Hegenscheidt leaves out words entirely. With a “doomed to fail”- aesthetic she choreographs the three actors. They misappropriate objects, examine mechanisms and recall dances from their past. Searching for the imagination in movement, movement loses its meaning. Schmidt, Frost and Daftsios get lost between genres and stuck in the elevator.
