Synopsis
Intrinsic Moral Evil seems to be a tale of identity and coming of age. But above all, the three dancers play with the viewer’s perception and expectations: is it a memory, a dream, a search for identity ? Is it about losing friendship or about growing up? The layered story gradually develops; revealing its last secrets just before the end credits start. Inviting the audience to reflect and to make its own interpretation.
