Némesis is a political tragicomedy with a touch of thriller, combining puppetry, circus and text.
The show explores memory, friendship and the way we perceive our past. It tells the story of three men who come together to pay tribute to a friend who died in 2001 under circumstances that remain unclear.
Through a chaos of puppets, acrobatics and theatrical scenes, a collective reflection emerges on memory, guilt, power and friendship.
At the crossroads of autobiography, thriller and circus, Némesis explores what happens when the truth is no longer attainable, yet cannot be forgotten.
