The performance deals with issues of individual responsibility in the contemporary society of recession, shock, precarious work, uncertainty and light-heartedness. What is the action that could make a change? Is democracy merely an empty ritual of endless dialogues that lead to nowhere? Who is going to take the responsibility and do something? Go to the end? Is violence the only solution?
Consisting of film, music, and choreography, the performance creates a field in which many performers with many names negotiate the action. Together with spectators. There is no doubt that something has to be done, urgently. The question is, what is to be done and who will do it?
