Presentation within the frame of the Transnational Artistic Residency by Dance Days Chania & Dance House Lemesos

What is the relation between the absurd, the meaning of life and the tenuous structures on which we build our lives? What is the relationship between The Myth of Sisyphus and the sociopolitical reality we live in today? Can friendship give an answer to the futility that insists on screaming?

A savior is expected. With a promise of growth. Everything will be fixed. Nevertheless the heroines cannot resist this which with so much audacity and insistence keeps making its appearance: but it is collapsing!

It is 1961. There is so much abundance, so little restraint. There is only audacious hope.

It is 2023. There is so much rain, so little water. There is no hope.

It is 2046. There is no more water.
