What do we do when we meet ourselves and others in an “empty” space? Do we dare to create something out of nothing? Do we dare to take what we need while taking care of others in the room? Liv Hanne Haugen, a dancer and a performance artist, weekly holds space for an exploration of body, materiality, oneself and others through movement. This film is based on an anthropological fieldwork, and it aims to give an experience of an open-form dance developed around fourteen years ago and practiced by a small and dedicated group of people residing in Tromsø, Norway
