“The last days of a dying woman take her in a parallel reality to the place she always longed for”
The body of a dying old woman lies in a bed in stillness, while her soul is dancing on the magic stage she longed to be all her life. The blinding lights and the clapping of an imaginary audience, accompany her to the final curtain call. In this poetic piece, life and death blend in a metaphoric farewell dance.
