Variation in real time on the action of the classic work "The Sunbeam," from 1912 by David W. Griffith. The deconstruction of the original work makes possible a fragmentation and reorganization of the stage. The whole work becomes then a recreated choreography, where the characters make the narrative wind on depending on their movements. https://vimeo.com/22696362

They include a drunken doctor, a bar girl who's been thrown out of town, a professional gambler, a travelling liquor salesman, a banker who has decided to embezzle money, a gun-slinger out for revenge and a young woman going to join her army captain husband. All have secrets but when they are set upon by an Indian war party and then a family of outlaws, they find they must all work together if they are to stay alive.
