| Description | Kiotoko? is a solo dance performance, where hunches, omens and unpredictability take turns in acting as the dance partner. Over the urban and abstract action hangs a dark cloud of religion, and late relatives reach from their corners towards the here and now. Reason and morals challenge fear and lust in a free wrestling match. In one person comes true not only his own life, but also the lives of countless others. What can be chosen, what comes incidentally, and what is unavoidable? |
