It is our source of life &#8211; invisible, often unnoticed and yet essential. One breath is all it takes to enter life. But what happens when air is missing? When we have to find ways to produce it in order to survive?    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Zirkus Chnopf <\/em>explores these questions through imagery, music, encounters, acrobatics, and dance.
