“The depth is a Fold of the surface” (Gilles Deleuze)
Two women, at the limits of reality and unconsciousness, between the silence and the darkness of their beings, play with unbalance, stillness and drift. A game of sharing, dominating, enslavement, controlling… in a constant search for balance where time plays to differing rhythms and where space gets folded, revealing the chasm. A travel from the depths to the surface.
