Do invented stories reflect your own reality more clearly than told biographies? The German-Russian co-production with a binational ensemble is exploring this question. Different life experiences of disabled people in different cultures play a role, as does the desire to design candy-colored worlds or abysmal fantasy spaces. With manga characters, half-true memories and science fiction stories, the German and Russian performers shimmy through splinters of their own biographies, tell about wishes and hopes and dance through their youth films. And Zumo and Etna, the two aliens, meanwhile communicate with each other with signs and wide eyes.

Premiere: 2. November 2016, Berlin
