The elevator of the nursing home turns into a stage as the old dancer explores the limits of his body, memory, and passing of time. Trapped inside the four walls, he must face the helplessness of his own languishing shell. Starring Jan Minařík, the soloist of Pina Bausch theatre and the greatest Czech 20th century dancer.
