Aus dem Innenleben eines Staubsaugerbeutels (Ersatzvorstellung für All I need)
Staub ist überall. Egal, wie oft wir ihn entfernen - er kommt immer wieder zurück. Zwischen Performance, Installation und Operette entdeckt das junge Kollektiv äöü im ganz Kleinen die ganz großen Fragen. Ein Staubsauger-Konzert, eine Operette, Kitsch und Komik am Fließband.
