A dance theater piece about waiting.

New Year's Eve: The train at an abandoned station is delayed by 10, 20, 30 minutes, one hour. Finally it fails! It gets cold, dark, it starts to rain - there is no reception. Who does not know that? The protagonists are stuck between the place of departure and arrival, past and future, their own beliefs and the beliefs of others. All you have to do is wait. But .. what exactly are we waiting for here?
