Queer, Chechen, Kurdish, four of them with Down Syndrome: a dance
collective of disabled and non-disabled performers is about to premiere
at a theater festival. Then, of all things, a soloist sprains her foot,
putting both the premiere and the collective’s future in jeopardy.
Everyone in the ensemble knows what is at stake: the cultural sector is
merciless, the clock is ticking, and in no time at all, you’re out of
the picture. The dancers must come up with a creative solution rather
than sinking into the abyss of personal sensitivities.
Bad Luck
