Disturbed and misunderstood, the romantic hero sets out on a cyclical journey.
A broken heart drives him forward, urges him to act, starts a search.
The unequivocal answer is utopia.
Existential philosophy. Spiritual overlapping. Romanticism. Their centerpiece is the hero - a troubled individual looking for an explanation and perhaps inner peace for his internal struggles. This dance poem is a mirror to look into. It encourages quietness and offers space for reflection. We don't cling to finding answers. Let's live the questions themselves.
How to Represent a Broken Heart? is a thirty-minutes sextet. From the animal kingdom to the depths of human minds, the international dance group invites the audience on a hypnotic movement poem journey about encounters. The hero and the herd. Animal instincts, the power of the intellect, irrational emotionality and, above all, the need of spirituality.
