He War

Wandering the streets, 10 performers veil and unveil themselves. Odd figures and a disturbing soundtrack echo through a turbulent public debate. Can dialogue prevent war? Man/woman, active/passive, dominant/dominated … Economical with its means, 'He War' reveals how these binary notions serve the political apparatus and shows the violent duality produced by the use of religious customs. Neither man nor woman … is there a form that refuses to be on either side? Which fills interstices? This ambiguous question of the in-between might be answered by a type of dialogue and movement.
