Based on the presumptuous sci-fi scenario of the speculative forthcoming sequel film Fluidø 2, the ICA Theatre is transformed into a hyper-playground where the gender conforming and nonbinary, chasers and chased and liberators and liberated find themselves in unexpected acts of intimacy. A selected ensemble gleaned from an open casting steal the spotlight with impro-performative-acts, manifesting the powers of intervention and resistance.
