Description

Most of us know this feeling, the conflict between personal calling and work. Or between the things you like to do and the need to learn skills for proper gainful employment. On the job market only those skills which can earn you an income count. Skills which allow you to make a living, or give you the possibility to pay for your leisure. Its a barter business - income for time.
In January 2014, 74 residents of Hoyerswerda are coming together to be part of a unique art project. Their target is to ask and find out about our sacrifices in our modern society. In choreography, interviews and video sequences, based on cinematic portraits of the dancers, they create images of a better social future or they let us participate in the turning points of their own life stories: turning points in which their personal callings were relinquished during their childhood, education, studies and working life.
