Glottis

Glottis takes place within a glottis or the depths of a grotto, in ancestral times, during prehistory, or in future times, after the story.
Three characters – blind visionaries, shamans under hypnosis, or down-to-earth somnuambulists indulge in mysterious practices.
In a form of danced concert disturbingly resembling a fantastic prophecy, they are having a discussion with a range of invisible forces.
As on onreiric immersion into the meanders of the magic and of the unconscious, Glottis celebrates the dark forces.
