People are constantly on the move. Every day, in every generation. They strive to change the reality of their lives across inner and outer borders. To do this, they are looking for new areas of activity and are leaving the "safe haven" - their homeland. Our birth is the first and most formative migration of our existence. The life lottery specifies the reality in which we come into this world. Here, migration is not only the result of the geopolitical problems of our time but also deals intensively with the personal triggers and emotional distress of people in different situations. In what feels like "5 minutes", the topics are treated in a choreographic performance, which premieres in the Bremen Harbor Museum - Speicher XI in Bremen's Überseestadt. The artistic team consists of
Migrants with and without disabilities. They have left their geographic home or have moved out of their family home. They have emigrated or fled. From politics in their own country, from cultural or social limitations, from their neighborhood or their families, from a lack of understanding, or perhaps from themselves and their own character.
