Research for LOST began in Divo in 2021. This town symbolises both a return to the roots and the indulgence in childhood memories. In this town, the most tragic moments are also brought back to life with the memory of the death of the older sister.




The moments of pain are characterised by the various women's groups that performed to commemorate the deceased. Each performance differed from the others in terms of ethnicity, social group and connection to the deceased. What they all had in common was the symbolic power of dance and an energetic ode to life.
