loser

“They told me I was special. They also told me that I would have everything I wanted in life, just for wanting it. Then I fell into the real world, and in an instant I knew that neither I was special, nor I would have everything I wanted.”

Loser is about the constant need to show a perfect life, in order to fill an endless void. It’s about the criticized, sometimes envied generation called Millennials, that hides a deep, true unhappiness. How to deal with a void that we never manage to fill?

A 50-minute solo created with the help of Amphytrion, the exchange-project between Azkuna zentroa (Bilbao) and Dansateliers Rotterdam. Premiered in October 2020 in Azkuna zentroa (Bilbao) and Gazteszena (Donostia).
