10 MIN EAST
is a project, which at its centre questions the fluidity and elusiveness of time in the context of geographical and social frames and ideologies.

Five choreographers and directors from Croatia, Hungary, Romania, and Slovenia – a geographical combination, which until twenty years ago was marked by the term »Iron Curtain«, in carefully measured 10 minutes of time, engage with their individual and collective realisations of time.

The result is a variegated map image of time, through which the dancers of EnKnapGroup travel, and is connected by; musician Mitja Vrhovnik Smrekar, Nejaaka and Luka Umek - projections, and Alan Hranitelj - costumes.
