Sigridur Hagalin Bjørnsdottir creates a new dystopia for the twenty-first century, exposing our fear of going backwards - back into the umbrella of state, social, psychological violence and separation. It hasn't disappeared, it hasn't lost its power, only hidden behind facades of prosperity. There are always plenty of excuses for any oppression, and at fateful moments society accepts it. Only a few of the feral and confused escape the embrace of lies. And only those who respond to suffering are able to throw into the void an almost hopeless call for help: "We are here. We are alive. Hear us."
