Playful dialogue between percussion and dance

Welcome to Karakuri, a world in which movement becomes sound. In a room full of metal objects, a woman appears. Is she real or is she a puppet? Is she moving of her own accord? Is she hanging on invisible strings? Or is there a mechanism inside her? On her course through the space, sound is created, rhythms resonate and melodies become audible. Suddenly, the space seems to take on a life of its own and respond. Who is steering? Who is following? Is movement music or is it the other way around?
