Where do I start and ADA ends?
In her work ADA, Hadas Nestel presents the experience of moving to a different country and living out of a suitcase through a choreographic language that moves between traditional flamenco and contemporary dance, the body and objects. The events of October 7 deepened the sense of foreignness, and raised questions about belonging and frameworks.
It is a journey in movement between here and there, an intimate and exposed creation that displays states of rupture and disorder, and the human need to find a home, while always being in motion.
