Starting from a reflection on the melting and detachment of glaciers, the dance company AZIONIfuoriPOSTO – born from the collaboration between Silvia Dezulian and Filippo Porro – opens a poetic investigation into what is destined to disappear and the legacy it leaves behind. Human bodies and glacial bodies are related as forces in motion, capable of transforming the landscape and preserving memories, inextricably linked to Time and its irreversibility.

The term “rimaye” derives from the Latin “rima” and means “crack”, and is used in mountaineering to indicate the terminal crevasse of a glacier, the empty space that separates the moving ice from the rock walls.
Through a series of excursions and field research near several glaciers in the Alps, the project combines the company's performative-choreographic language with scientific and historical research into changing mountain landscapes, reflecting on the disruptive force and disarming fragility of both humans and the environment that surrounds them, placing them on the same level and focusing on their ability to shape and store stories and experiences destined to disappear, leaving room for what is to come.
Thanks to a score of gestures, words and sounds, between enchantment, nostalgia and irony, the work touches on themes such as climate change, memory between the present, past and future, and the generational transition. What unites physical and theatrical dramaturgy are the dancers' personal memories of the mountains – incomplete fragments expressed through monologues, dialogues and music, which will sooner or later disappear, leaving traces behind, like those left by glaciers now on the verge of extinction in the landscape.
