This is the story of a bunch of artists who decide to continue their residency while the world is falling apart. In this context their occupations take different, extreme, apocalyptic paths, between extravagance and madness. They have to organise themselves, form a group, a collective, to be able to make decisions about community life in L’Abri.
They create an alternative reality, in which the absence of contact with the outside world pushes them to communicate differently and to give voice to imaginary deities, feeding a fantastic bunker mythology. Together, they work to shape the show of the future.

L’Abri - espace culturel pour jeunes talents, Genève
Buried at the foot of the Old Town, L’Abri is a vast cultural space dedicated to supporting and promoting young talent from all walks of life. Originally, this former air-raid shelter from the 1940s was designed to accommodate 1,200 people in three areas: a safe monolith, a little anxiety-producing. Some major transformation work then gave it a whole new look. While preserving the general structure, the architects created generous spaces where the most contemporary construction techniques combined with the unique history of the place. But this place, like any other, won’t keep you safe from everything, especially not talent!
