A man—guide sets out on a journey, which is formed only beneath his own steps. He shares so much of himself with everyone that he begins to forget who he is. He cannot wait, yet he needs you to follow him. Can you keep up with his pace?
A dance–music reflection on the constant need for stimulation, escape, and the simultaneous search for the present moment.
This intimate double bill of dancer Andrej Štěpita and musician Štěpán Janoušek presents an original solo project by two distinctive members of Farm in the Cave, unfolding in a liminal space between movement and sound.

The musical composition becomes a performative contemplation of what it means today to be—and to gradually disappear.
Presence turns into absence, sound into memory, and the human gesture into a digital trace.
A call for stillness that never arrives. A song of endless searching, of the desire to move forward even when there is nowhere left to go.
