Synopsis

Two characters, him and her, talk about their life in front of a camera: he talks about his travels and his audio reseach in the american desert. She talks about her last job where she talked constantly in front of a permanently connected camera. This strange couple met when he was repairing something in the studio where she was recording. The play deals with the inability to communicate: two characters who can't say anything without using a camera, not even "I love you."
