Description (in English): 

“Loss of Grasp” recreates the loss of self-control. What happens when one has the impression of losing control in life, of losing control of his/her own life? Six scenes tell the story of a man that is losing himself. “Loss of Grasp” plays with the self-control and the loss of self-control and invites the reader to experiment with these feelings in an interactive work.

Description (in French): 

"Déprise" est une création sur les notions de prise et de contrôle. Quand a-t-on l’impression d’être en situation de prise ou de perte de prise dans la vie ? Six scènes racontent l’histoire d’un homme en pleine déprise. Parallèlement, ce jeu sur prise et déprise permet de mettre en scène la situation du lecteur d’une œuvre interactive.
