Sun and Crystal
Art Group Seigai (Japan)

Two shadows are dancing in a field of flowers next to a battlefield. The
memories of a woman killed there – recorded by the crystal. Taken away
by shadows to a place where time has stopped, the woman embarks on a
journey to find it. Based on Japanese folktales, Noh, and butoh that
reveal the human unconscious, this is a story about the memories of
human extinction engraved in DNA. Through poetry and drama Sun and
Crystal describes an apocalypse of modern civilisation. A universal
contemporary myth that transcends time and borders.
