One Strike Salvation

How does one say goodbye to their homeland? How does one carry memories forward without being overwhelmed by them? One Strike Salvation is an intense duet that makes these questions physically tangible – through movement, rhythm, and ritual gestures. Stones, songs, flags, and dance – Yotam Peled and Moshe Nitzan glide between past and present, between personal memories and collective history. They draw on traditions of memorial ceremonies and independence celebrations – and unravel these layer by layer. This creates images of letting go and the longing to remain connected to what has shaped us. At the center lies the radical simultaneity of grief and joy: they are intertwined, sharing space, transforming it. The recurring choreography becomes a ritual of transformation – a living interplay between resistance and surrender, where rhythm becomes a common language. Following this: audience discussion.
