Muscle and sweat. David Albert-Toth and Emily Gualtieri push themselves to the very limits. Labour. Five phenomenal womxn* embark on a radical endurance ritual. Here, millimetre-precise control borders on liberating chaos. An electric shock that instantly radiates fierce energy.
* The term ‘womxn’ (pronounced ‘femmes’) is an inclusive spelling used to refer to all people who identify as women or whose gender identity is marginalised.
