The Far North at stake here is Canadian. Huge woods covered with snow, remote frozen lands where a man chooses to go, seeking what he cannot put into words. As a wise reader of London and Haines, but without straying from multidisciplinary writing which is so dear to him, Arnaud Saury recounts this journey. Travelling with his dog, the man will die stupidly because he couldn't light a fire. A tragic story? Not quite. In this show where limited means increases inventiveness, comedy is also part of the adventure. Which is why the stage director has decided to entrust just one witness with telling this disaster: the dog. So as to fathom human nature with a dog's intuition.
