Caught

Four women.
Four destinies.
And the unshakable will to follow their dreams.

Four women. Four life stories. One courage – to rise again.

A shaman. A burlesque performer. A marketing manager. An acrobat. What if their destinies have more in common than anyone would expect? And what if that “something” is something we all share? You might catch yourself too. In the moment when you recognize a piece of yourself in one of these stories.

přistiŽENA tells stories. About falls that grew wings. About strength that rises from within. About moments when someone decides not to give up. And about the joy that comes when they know they can make it. The past does not have to be a stop sign. It can become a springboard for the courage to rise again.

přistiŽENA draws viewers in through all the senses. They can expect aerial acrobatics on silks and aerial net, large-scale projections mapped onto the performer’s body, music that lingers long after the final note, and a punching bag that changes the rules of the game.

“přistiŽENA” raises questions we only whisper to ourselves. And lets the answers resonate deep into the marrow of our bones. Dare to spread your wings. And rise.
