Kris Verdock / A TWO DOGS COMPANY presents: 

WALL TO WALL turns its gaze to the shadow lives of the modern metropolis — the invisible flipside of the 21st-century city. To explore this theme, we bring together two projects: DEMO, a short film by Belgian visual artist and theatre maker Kris Verdonck, and NOT TOMORROW, a dance performance by Brussels-based Catalan dancer and choreographer Marc Iglesias Figueras. 

More than half the people on our planet live in cities. What does living in a city do to a person? Cities are often known as places where jobs are available, where luxuries can be bought, and comfort is within reach. But cities also often produce a precarious class of homeless, refugees, unemployment, ... Concerned with their image, city councils try to keep these groups out of sight. Neighborhoods are changing, cities are increasingly conceived in terms of gentrification, tourism and profit. 

In this dialogue between film and dance, WALL TO WALL sketches a portrait of the human as performer — and of the artist searching for a place in a city shaped by hyper-connectivity and digital spectacle.  Both characters are searching for meaning and connection in a world that keeps slipping away. Their quest seems destined to fail, yet they continue — to move, to perform, to persist.
