Alin Uberti

Immediately after the 1989 revolution, many Romanians decided that they were not going to stick around to see what was happening to their country. They needed distance. They uprooted themselves and settled in different countries that promised more than the absences of the last decade of the communist regime:


no food, no warmth, no freedom. Although the living conditions still exist today, 35 years later, the absence is that of people who still have not returned. They send money home, they dial and call, but their bodies are nowhere to be found in today's Romania.

This performance is a participatory experience that tells the story of these bodies, their journey, their joy, their pain and their absence. A story that cannot be told without the bodies joining the stage.

A story about an untranslatable word that Romanian bodies cannot forget. A story about everything we cannot forget.
