"This dance film follows four beings evolving within the heart of a habitat that is both constructed and organic. On this territory - a metaphor for what connects humans to the biosphere - these men and women shed the last vestiges of their societal roles to surrender to their wild instincts, embracing this dark space where life and death merge. It is in this in-between realm that their journey, marked by turmoil, reveals the sacred, somewhere at the intersection of reality and imagination, between the first and the last breath."
