Samenvatting:

One Act
Node is an ambivalent term, like chains, absence, risk, bond. Noemi lives the ambiguous meaning of these words daily and deeply in relation to her origins and her present.
Chains. On the one hand they make her feel safe, immune from the risk of falling, on the other they hold her back, preventing her from being deeply herself
Absence. For Noemi it is a lack of someone or something stable, but also liberation from that someone
Risk. For her it is fear of losing what she has built up from her past, but it is also an opportunity to achieve something new
Bonding. It is the ancestral and also institutional affection for loved ones, but can represent a symbiotic union and blurred boundaries
Finally, Node. For Noemi, it is a shared feeling, which eases any pain, but also entangles one's own breathlessness
