The tiled floor is covered in scraps of paper that trickle down steadily like snow. A training event for hairdressers? Young people in sneakers sit, stand, and cut. They perform the same movements over and over again until they become part of the body's memory. Tableau-like camera angles make the smallest gestures visible. Under Veronika Eberhart’s precise gaze, the functional hand movements transform into a choreography.
