A female body, immigrant, transient, displaced, searches for paths and alternatives in the urban city of Berlin. In the midst of urban chaos and the frenetic dynamics of the city, the body also walks in the middle of an abandoned train track. The tap dance marks the time of this singular body and resists in its daily life, in a constant exercise of self-affirmation of identity in that space.
