Breakdance collective 155 rides from Utrecht (Netherlands) to Accra (Ghana, Africa) together with their motorcycle crew. 10,000 km of asphalt, reflection, art-making, and survival.

This short dance film explores the parallel between being deep in a journey — overwhelmed by new impressions, unable to fully process or make sense of them — and the ability to express all of that through movement. The memories are stored not through thought, but through motion. It’s a tough ride that slowly reveals how much we take for granted, how dance speaks across all borders, and how the most instinctive, unplanned creations often become the most honest ones

It is no longer surprising to see private corporations put strategies in place to confuse the public debate and paralyze political decision-making. Overwhelmed by excess of information, how can we, as citizens, sort out fact from fiction?
