Surrounded by original wallpaper designed by Inbal Pinto herself, the stage is somewhat nostalgic, but at the same time, it feels like the near future.

The performers are Moran Muller, a dancer who has been creating together for many years, and Itamar Serussi, a dancer and choreographer who has been active in Europe in recent years, appearing in Pinto's first work. Cellist and singer Maya Belsitzman provides original music.
