The performance emanates from the absurd as developed by Eugene Ionesco, in his work The Killer, whereas the performers guide us through three different periods in time: the years of their birth (1976 and 1977), the coming of age period that comes to a closure with a rite of passage (1995 /1996) and the present time.

»Primož Bezjak, Branko Jordan and Katarina Stegnar /…/ point at the ambiguous nature of spectacle, including the theatre spectacle, where they are themselves active protagonists. While we’re asking ourselves together with them, what we should have done to feel better in our own shoes but we haven’t, we return to reality; we actually sink completely into it, because they fictively, virtually and imaginary, surrounding us in the form of mediatised images, successfully crush the stage as grotesque as they can.« (Nenad Jelesijević, Radio Študent, 22. 11. 2013)
