Duel

Four acrobats face the outcome of their confrontation. At times they play against one another, at times they choose to play together. Their choices will require them to sacrifice their honour. They chase goals and accept defeats. 
Once again, like countless times before, a person stares at you. In your mind the thought echoes: how will the challenge turn out this time? Observe. Anticipate. React. Innumerably, but every time different, every time anew. You observe yourself by carrying out the challenge, and while truth never slips through your fingers you get to know yourself over again. Thoughts nudge poke you to crumble your presence, to make you lose the sense of meaning. Once again with a profound will you build castles in the sky, and once again they collapse before you. And then again, like countless times before, you stare at yourself. 
After a successful collaboration in 2019, Cirkusfera, Cirkorama and Un loup pour l’homme have chosen to carry out this project to provide encouragement to artists of Serbia and Croatia to continue taking steps on the path of professional circus careers. They have chosen to use the artistic circumstances to their advantage, and not to succumb to its deficits. By embracing the cultural environment they have devoted themselves to the creative process.
