Masterful circus meets mischievous theatre, with buckets of charm. loops & breaks by Julia Schwarzbach (Austria) - A unique and intensely physical piece, fusing freestyle dance with martial arts.

Waiting by Mokhallad Rasem (Belgium/Irak) Winner: ACT Festival International Touring Prize, BE FESTIVAL 2014 - When Ivan Hansen's neighbour passes away suddenly, Ivan realises he doesn't know anything about him.
