S 62° 58' W 60° 39'
To the fathers I keep staging
In an ice landscape, a sailboat is held captive by polar waters. The crew is isolated from the rest of the world, helpless and hopeless. Their GPS coordinates - S 62° 58‘, W 60° 39’ - indicate their exact location in the arctic waters of Deceptione Island. The ship's crew is faced with an impossible situation: survival. It is unclear how they got stuck.
But before we get any answers, a performer addresses his director. The crew members become performers again, trying to make something out of nothing. The conditions are harsh, the days long. They are stranded in the unrelenting environment of a white void, an icy infinity, a blank page.
"Their productions are impossible to sum up, ingenious, surreal, full of gentle madness and controlled shifts, yet hyper-realistic and tender."La Libre Belgique
