In a forest threatened with extinction, humans persist in enjoying themselves: pleasure, fun, blinders too. But until when? Stuck in their distress, how can they avoid sinking into the abyss? And above all, what can we hold on to, to stay alive in spite of it all?
From an attempt to reintroduce a wild animal to a shower of dead birds crashing to the ground, from a nature reconnecting workshop to the disappearance of the last tree on earth, TIMBER is a visual and non-verbal show, a contemporary fable dissecting our link to the living.
