This choreography has its roots in the profound need to come to terms with the struggle against one's body whenever the latter no longer responds to orders from the mind. 

At a young age, all of us have been more or less spontaneous, jaunty, happily naïve. It happens though that the unforeseen hits us and makes us stronger, less flexible, reaches out to our inner self and changes our way of perceiving the world around us, and above all our way of relating to other people. It's a long and difficult course of forbearance, personal growth, acknowledgement and hopefully moral strengthening. 

Watching/feeling/absorbing this piece, it will make the dancers and us sense the need of a key to its interpretation, the need of a lifestyle that can help us be prepared for every eventuality, the need of a new insight and of a different scale of values so as to make bearable what at the moment doesn't seem to be so. The price to be paid is the capability of scaling down what is not strictly necessary. Maybe, we are talking about something recurrent, and maybe we will realize that we don't have to expect that everything must come to an end. What we are looking for is an honest approach to the fact that the unforeseen can arrive at any moment. On second thoughts, the branch is not that weak.
