Narcissus & Echo
House of Makers x Veejays.com / The Netherlands / 2021 / 06:42
Narcissus & Echo has been developed as an interactive experience. The version you’ll see now is a shorter, linear adaptation. The full version starts as a pas-de-deux inside a mysterious cube. As the tension between the dancers rises, the spectator can find out how warped their perception of reality is, and how much this stands in the way of their chances of finding a true human connection.
