About

What to expect

The performance tells a poetic, layered story about the persecution of gay men in the former Dutch East Indies, where colonialism and queer history meet.

Bali, 1938: in the mountain village of Iseh, German artist Walter Spies finds the free life Europe denied him as a gay man.

His freedom exists inside a colonial system he profits from, and when fascism rises in Europe the hunt reaches the colony too.
