Caline, Oskar, Adrian:a, Till, Stina, Lena, Zoe, Sadia, Dhzein, … queer, Chechen, Kurdish, three of them Down syndrome superstars: an inclusive collective of dancers is about to premiere its show at a theater festival. Then – who else? – a soloist sprains her foot. Everyone in the ensemble knows they’ll have to pull out all the stops. The industry is ruthlessly unforgiving, the clock is ticking, and if the work is not spot on, then bam! – you can be out of the game. A utopian dance musical, in which normalizing practices are hereby abolished and we witness the breathtaking unfolding of a heterogeneous space of alliances.
