Sport was born from play. And play began when we felt safe—when we had the space and energy to simply play. So, shall we play? Will we be at the starting line together?
A performance full of movement, emotion, imagery, euphoria, anger, and triumph. Sport as a gateway to themes that touch everyone—whether they love sport or despise it. Cirk La Putyka returns to the very beginning. To the roots. To the question of why it all started. Back to ancient Athens, to the sun and the dust, to reflect on the lives of today’s professional athletes. What does the journey toward a dream look like? What goes through the mind a second before the starting shot? What does it feel like to return to training after an injury? What do athletes go through when nothing is working, when everything hurts? When do they want to be alone—and when do they feel abandoned?

We play sports
to find something. A balance between body and soul. Meaning. Creativity. Silence in the mind.
We play sports
because we want to push beyond our limits. To reach the top. To become gods—if only for a moment.
We play sports
to fall. And to rise again. Again and again. Even when it hurts. Especially when it hurts.
