Taival is a contemporary circus performance with three performers: a juggler, an acrobat and a performance artist. Absurd scenes create a raw performance with mixture of black humour and oddness. Isn't pain a bit poetic as beauty? Can we lauch at painful and hurtful things? Taival interrogates this fragile separation that lives inside of us all, between an absolute freedom that inspires us and independency that gives essence of being human. Linked with manipulative games and domination these artist try to let go of it in order to find a refuge to their frustrations.
