A dingy alley in the slums of a big city. The back door of a restaurant. The thumping beats of an underground club. Neon lights. Frying oil. Urine. In a narrow alley, the masks come off. For once, you get to witness what normally remains hidden.

After two theater performances, Febe Coysman and Lena Majrireturn to their first great love: site-specific theater. Once again, they create a cinematic world populated by grotesque characters. With humor and compassion, they dismantle their tragedy, while not shying away from the big questions and emotions.
