Two windows. A man and a woman behind each, carried by the wind. Through a delicate game of opening and closing, the man and woman observe the world, each through their own window. Every opening is an invitation to take a peek inside, into the lives of two characters at the same time, a chance to discover what is outside, to see what’s happening just beyond. On the outside, the wind blows, stirs, whispers… It is violent, melancholic, sparkling, yet as delicate as a caress. The wind is a force of life, energy and vitality. It is the wheel that makes the world go round. This show’s extraordinary sound design takes the audience on a surreal journey through unfamiliar landscapes and situations. The window openings are simultaneously passages of humor, poetry and moments of real life. The rhythm of the wind’s impetuous breath interrupts the lives of the two characters and carries them away. Finally, it becomes the key element that encourages them let themselves go in order to experience a momentous change. The windows open and close while floating in space, in a game of glances and chase at a faster and faster pace. And when the wind calms down, they will find themselves face to face. What will happen next?
