Reinterpreting biological phenomena by which some parasites change their identity by swapping their outer layer in a moult-like process, the performance stages a live moulting to retrace the history of Ovida Delect and Karl Pärsimägi: two queer resistance fighters who joined the French Resistance at different times during the Second World War and were deported to German concentration camps -with differing outcomes. Whilst Delect embodied the possibility of a belated yet complete transformation, Pärsimägi’s violently cut-short life story points to those metamorphoses that could never be completed.
