Katerina Andreou plays with the constant level of negotiation between autonomy and authority. As a result, she tracks the mechanisms of decision-making: is "free will" just an illusion? Continuously gaining momentum, Katerina Andreou invents a body on alert, in a solo that unfolds like a playground, where rules are created to be manipulated, in response to a "free" dance. An autonomous body in the middle of action, which develops its own sense of space and time, embracing the present with no nostalgia or idealisation. During forty minutes, Katerina takes us on a journey with "her rules, he manipulations, her acting, her fight", and activates the tension thanks to our gaze.
