If swimming gives me pleasure, if I never dive again in the blue and clean waters.
If I peacefully sleep at night, if my pillow is like stone and my sheet like iron.
I shall be sincere.
If I am not sincere tonight, I am not worthy of showing myself to you tonight.
The new play by Efthimis Filippou, with a concentrated and phantasmagorical language, ventures to wander through the private life of a woman and a man, in an unusual trial, as a contemporary tragedy.
A female choir is at the centre of the dramaturgy. Vibrating body, ideal society, object of temptation or catharsis, it reveals, through its singing, the intimacy of these two figures, who whisper their truth.
