Contrakant is a piece made and performed by 8 people mixed in such a way that they become a human centipede moving exposed to chaos continuously, generator of moments sometimes comical, sometimes absurd, sometimes lyrical, sometimes pathetic and occasionally sublime.
This super human body has the capacity to generate space/time and collides and overflows the theatre which is the structure created aprioristically as the place for the "vision".
The spectator, who is part of this Kantian structure with its expectations and "ends" (Telos, in Greek end, as the curtain "telón" in spanish language, that marks the beginning and end of a piece) will feel traversed by chaos, accident and unpredictable, that puts us in touch with the most absolute present.
