Do you dare to make your way through an eerie city by night? Running on a real treadmill, you move through the cityscape projected onto the screen in front of you, all the while determining your own direction and speed. The distance you cover in the virtual city corresponds to the number of measured meters you run on the treadmill. This is interactive cinema that calls for full physical commitment.
