The solo-performance 8 times wilder is a physical and textual dialogue between a veterinarian and a beached whale.
Their connection arises from the doctor's need to kill the whale to alleviate the animal's suffering.
The performance zooms in on the beauty, doubts, contradictions, mythology and mysticism that emerge from the connection between the whale and the human.
 

Do humans have the duty to kill the beached whale? Why?
