A desire for solidarity, laughter and fun.

Kintsugi is the art of sublimating imperfections. In a bus shelter away from the world and time, strangers wait to be taken somewhere else. They don't know when they'll leave or where they'll go.

These motionless travelers rely on outside forces to lose themselves and, paradoxically, find something within themselves. This mysterious place awakens in everyone a thirst for life, for encounters and the unusual. A desire for solidarity, laughter and fun. In a sometimes waking dream, fragments of their past sculpt the present, revealing a new beauty. With Kintsugi, Machine de Cirque creates a moment of great humanity, imbued with vertiginous acrobatic prowess. An inspiring plunge into life, which is here, now and full of beauty.
