HOLDING NOSTALGIA is a work of screendance that explores concepts such as ritual, absence/presence, nomadism, games, impossibility, corporeal joy, the panic and poetics of living. Holding Nostalgia glorifies the poetry of daily life through games, the frenzy of multiple tasks and animated acts to express various states of the body and soul in relation to “the other”, which evolve through action.
