“King of Oulu” A mystic encounter with two dancers at “being real ritual”.

The dancers try to keep their integrity without being influenced or manipulated by the voice! Soon they are forced to adopt something unknown and deal individually with the consequences while their bodies reveal the shadows of their innocent needs. “King of Oulu” is a contemporary dance performance with element of physical theatre made for two dancers and one actor. Through this encounters the main question stands out - who draws the line of making it or failing in it.
