Lalo plays a song. Then he’s quiet. And then he starts talking. And he talks about Laura, his partner, and the flat they used to live in, in Santiago de Compostela. And he says that one day, Laura went to Lake Walden, in the northern USA. And she never came back.
Lalo has a box. A box containing Laura’s things. A box with Laura’s things that was found in the motel at Concord, a few kilometres from Lake Walden. Lalo doesn’t know what Laura was doing in the US. Lalo doesn’t know anything. But he’ll try and explain it all to us.

This is the sixth edition of INFLUX festival [ video on stage ] that, once again, collaborates with Antic Teatre to promote artists who use video and digital media as an integral aspect of artistic expression for their work on stage. The festival includes works by visual artists, musicians, poets, dancers, performers and theatrical creators who exist in the inbetween spaces. INFLUX aims to become an established platform providing visibility for local creators from Barcelona and Catalonia and to help provide a multifaceted vision of the diversity that exists in contemporary creation.
