Struggle, fight. revolution, battle. The latest creation by Pal Frenak, Lutte is an intense, really physical, but also poetic dance piece about our human struggles, our fights – in a symbolic and practical sense a swell – our social and emotional hierarchies. In the year of the Olympics we raise the question: does the winner take it all? How can we overcome on ourselves and others? How can we defeat on our ego? How can we handle our everyday fights? The piece LUTTE - choreography by Compagnie Pal Frenak – combines the elements of sport and dance, sign language and design – using certain motifs of conquering from the Scandinavian mythology.

The title can be interpreted as a small community of people, who create a group to make life more liveable, but it can also be understood as a destructive horde which destroys its own habitat following some kind of indescribable urge. The piece investigates the spiritual dilemma of the creative man. The dilemma is the "provision" of man broken away from nature. This "provision" is not without memories and the desire to return to nature. It is not without any sense of humour, humanity or magic that helps us through everything. It is not without formulating the retaining power of the family. The Horde is a modest, but stubborn attempt to summarise our personal "provisions".
