The work-in-progress presentation of the production was held at Bethlen Theatre in 12th of June 2018. The participant artists of the project was Tamás Lóky - dramaturge, Csenger K. Szabó, Judit Takács and László Takács - dancers, Tamás Rétfalvi – actor and Alexis Cuadrado (ESP) – musician, music composer. The contemporary dance performance featuring acrobatic movement elements, clothes changing and role playing scenes mixes textual prose parts and screened visual effects (not well-known or unpublished records about refugees, human trafickers, border control actions). One of the most expressive specialties of the performance is the site-specificity: a part of the audience sits in 4-persons inflatible boats on the stage, in this way watches and follows up close the dancers around them. Besides of migration the other central topics of the performance are searching for identity, home and honesty, moreover the individual’s role in a community.
