Sailor on Aisle 5 (trailer)

FESCH.TV INFORMIERT:

five performers navigating the intensity of their desires in the precarious waters of late capitalism and contemporary performance. Set in the abstraction of a supermarket, the Sailor*s must build temporary boats in order to connect, play, and survive. A hanging garden, an unswept floor, a salt-fresh paradise, a negative affirmation, and a curated time-travel through various melancholias. Sailor*s make special offers using their looks, their candor, and their own dead futures to wash up always on the final shore: Paris, 1919.

A sailor* is an identity game and not so much about having a boat.
