The central character of the play begins to realise that everything that happens to her body happens to the world as well, and this leads her to become aware of something that no one knows (what it is), nor does she quite understand how she has it: a great empathy with the world.Jorge Andrade, Visão magazine, January 2021
A science fiction show set in an undefined time much like our own. A woman deals with two ends simultaneously. She watches the world crumble through a window. In her own body, she experiences her degradation due to a degenerative disease. Her destruction prolongs itself in the destruction of the world and vice-versa.
"OFF" establishes a labyrinth between what happens to this woman, the story told in a book a writer proposes to publish, and the subtitles given to the audience.
What are the limits between things if we believe that there are differentiated entities in the world? Can we sacrifice a part for the survival of the whole? The whole in order to save just one part?
