A most crisis situation in a country during a pandemic. Where state authority is abused to accelerate the end of the plague (and society). The country has no more funds to deal with the plague, so they can only sell a dream: 2000 selected people will be sent all over the country to become the country’s saviours.

Talking with my-selves is a performance that is in the universe of power and identity issues. the performance that borrows the participatory-interrogative working mode, plays with the possibilities of presentation, representation, and those in between.

we invite several participants to input their personal data in the identity input space. the performer interacts with the plural self (performer and participant) as an attempt to reconsider issues that are singular and original, that bind and are unionized.
