Description It’s like these last few people on this island are somehow representative of us as a world. And in their interconnectedness, they find each other. The Colony is a poetic account of the last days of a handful of souls who have been cast out from mainstream society. Sometimes romantic, sometimes devastating, but always beautiful, The Colony asks big questions about what is most important in our lives. The Colony fuses dance, live music, film and spoken word, and has created an amazing opportunity for local artists to come together with new nationally and internationally acclaimed collaborators
