Michikazu Matsune’s solo-performance deals with our constant struggle to find one’s own identity beyond territories and categorizations, beyond frictions and hindrances in our globalized world. It’s based on a story of a professional dancer who was forced to dance as part of a passport control at an international airport, in order to prove his profession and take away suspicions caused by his Muslim first name.
