Sinopse
We collect what slips through our fingers. What memory does an object hold? Raquel André collects the collectors themselves. She asks them to tell her a secret, to tell her what it means to be a collector. She asks them to stop collecting. In the show “The Secret of Simonides” one collects the other and keeps what can’t be kept.
