"To be lost is to be fully present, and to be fully present is to be capable of being in uncertainty and mystery." Rebecca Solnit, 2005
A gripping psychological feminist drama exploring the hazy aftermath of trauma. Suspended in a surreal psychological space, the characters have no memory of what happened to them. They are lost, desperate to piece together the past and find their way back to reality. As they search for answers to a lingering cycle of violence, a haunting question remains: when you are this far gone, do you even want to be found?
Fugue /fjuːɡ/: a loss of awareness of one's identity, often coupled with flight from one's usual environment, associated with certain forms of hysteria and epilepsy.
Running time approx. two hours
