Synopsis: “In the Distance” is a choreographic triptych presented as short films, offering a perspective on the notions of complementarity and duality, expressions of resilience in the face of challenges.

The three parts of this choreographic triptych invite us to examine the physical, mental, and emotional states evoked by life’s circumstances. Whether through our relationship with others, ourselves, or these circumstances, the ability to take a step back emerges as an introspective exercise in balance – a test of the mind and soul, heightened by hardships.
