Ten journeys…Valkeapää & Hoffrén

Ten journeys to a place where nothing happens

av Juha Valkeapää & Taito Hoffrén

A motor home is parked next to a large tent. In the tent two Finnish men are baking pancakes, making coffee and entertaining guests. The performance of artist Juha Valkeapää and musician Taito Hoffrén runs at a pleasant and leisurely pace – the hosts take care of guests, talk, play some music, discuss a few topics, perform some theatre and in between they tell us ten sincere stories. Their greatest challenge, or so they say, is to do nothing. Simply to be. In this they sometimes succeed, sometimes not.
