The originality of the show lies in the gap between the narrative provided by the voice-over (omnipresent) and the visible, concrete actions played on stage by the characters in an almost silent film: their play, sometimes very poetic, transcends narration. As a result, not only is the spectator's emotion intense, but the philosophical reflection on the meaning (s) of the work emerges: since Man sells his thought, his body, his time, in exchange for a salary, since he is constantly in exchange, barter, link, is he a "merchant"? What is he walking towards?
