Matěj Samec: Breath

"What I'm about to tell you is not true. I'm not forcing you to look for it. It's my birthday today."

Joseph is called Joseph, but no one calls him by his name. When he was little, he believed the stars got a little closer every night. He clears his head with strenuous mountain treks, has a favorite bar where an interesting singer often sings sad songs about the hints of love. His personal life is in tatters, he cheats on his wife with women from the internet in filthy hotel rooms. 
The rain has come down from the sky, silent as a corpse.

For the most part, the production, like all the more interesting events of our sad lives, takes place in the dark to allow the essential sensory sensations to emerge; the high pitched tone of the nervous system, the deep tone of the rushing blood, and the dynamically changing rhythm of human breathing, determined by the actual intensity of the panic of our mothers' deaths.
