Thursday of the week. Day 39 of the quarantine.
In four days we'll be out of the house. Most of us. Because we have to. But some of us will stay inside. Because we have to. Some others may stay in because they want to. And some others because they've always been in. Where are you? Where would you like to be? And where can you be?
Flashback: 23/3-18/4.
Sofia Bletsou is in her village. She feels lonely. ...is - like everyone else? - from shock to denial from denial to acceptance and from acceptance to beauty and back to contemplation... 19/4. At some point, Sophia, in order to activate her friends - the En Dynamism group - who were also feeling lonely (in the midst of quarantine) asks them:-What is home to you? She discovers that, together with her and her people, they dream of a home of their own, without walls, which includes us all.
A big house. A house that has no doors and no windows. It has only loving and happy people, a kiss, a hug and a sky.
20/4-29/4.
In the hope that all people will one day be able to have a "real home" of their own. And in the hope that - one day - all of us, as a society, will be able to build a house that fits us all.
The occasion was a song from the performance "The other house" directed by Eleni Efthymiou - the House of Arts and Letters - group En Dynamoti, which poses the question: "what does home mean".
Group members, partners and friends "meet" and give their own answers.
