| Description |
Hill attempts to make sense of humankind's propensity to violence. Her inspiration came from a visit to Tasmania's Port Arthur, once a brutal prison and more recently the scene of a mass shooing of 35 people. Her dark dance-drama is intended as a homage to the strength of the human spirit in times of adversity. |
