Otherwise, the void. Or, a parallel world deep inside us where many things are stored. Such as memories and unknown creatures. How often do you visit this world? What are you doing there? How much changed are you, every time you come back? Via butoh dance, the two performers travel deep into the limbo state at a present time and return to the audience the memories of this experience.
