Every morning, they walk to work. The act of walking itself is work. They all walk—somewhere: in Nairobi to the matatu (shared taxi), in Berlin to the subway station. They are streams of people, dense movements that make their way through the urban jungle day after day.

Many try to avoid walking, moving their workplace closer to home or creating new ways of working to shorten or bypass their daily commute.
The Kenyan-German dance production *Jua Kali* by Jared Onyango and Lea Pischke explores the everyday journeys of people in Nairobi and Berlin. It asks how political and urban conditions can shape and transform such a fundamental human movement.
In *Jua Kali*, movement becomes a universal motif—a tension between community and solitude amid the crowd.
