The zero line (Pakistan)

A powerful, non-verbal performance that captures the paradox of division and unity, The Zero Line explores the fragile relationship between two nations separated by an invisible yet defining border. What begins as camaraderie among soldiers quickly turns into a contest of identity, as they reshape their appearances and actions to assert difference. Yet, in their pursuit of distinction, they unknowingly mirror each other. As tensions escalate, the symbolic “zero line” fades, replaced by gates of their own making. With mesmerizing choreography and evocative movement, this thought-provoking performance delves into the absurdity of rivalry and the inevitable realization that true strength lies in unity.
