Their relationship evolves around an ominous secret: John has always believed that an inevitable, overwhelming and devastating event awaits him. This belief is so powerful \u2013 like a beast lurking in ambush \u2013 that it paralyses him. For decades, John and his only confidante May wait to see what lies in store for him. Against the backdrop of a secluded country manor house, van Gool spins the story from the late 19th century to our global world today in a poetic and visually powerful blend of costume and dance film.<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbThe novella is about something you cannot describe with words, and I read it a bit like a duet that is waltzing around the subject all the time.
