For some people, life runs like clockwork.
But not for us. We fight a battle every day.
Our reptilian brain wants only one thing: to survive.
How do we find our way out of this turmoil?
Simple: put thirteen artists on a stage with different talents and profiles, ranging from adhd, autism and trauma to epilepsy and high sensitivity. Together, let them transcend all the shit and overcome the chaos. To then go out and change the world.
