How can we bear the weight of existence when every step seems to bring us closer to the slow destruction of our planet? In the solitude of a hotel room somewhere in Europe, a young woman attempts to answer this burning question. How can we cope with repeated heatwaves? How can we integrate these waves of heat, each with a new name, into our lives as they strike season after season? Under this oppressive heat, she creates a parallel world for herself, a fragile refuge. A show that is both funny and poetic, where humour blends with lucidity.
