Who is actually unsettling whom? In a couple’s relationship? In the relationship between the audience and the performers? In the relationship between musician and dancer, between video and body? In the relationship between desire and observing? Between the protagonists and viewers?

Like in an experimental arrangement, the three performers explore the possibilities of permissible closeness and confront the audience with an oscillation between entertainment and violence.
