Math courses:
- Knowing that you are a creative team composed of 10 French people, including 3 women, and recognizing that there is only one couple in this team.
- Knowing that you stay 20 days in Slovakia to create your show and knowing that the hotel capacity of the city is drastically reduced due to demolition of the largest hotel in the city.
- Knowing that the hotels are full 3 months in advance.
- Knowing that your production budget is not yet set, and thus knowing that temperatures in the Nordic region prohibit you think of a type of precarious accommodation type tent, squat, mobile home or caravan.
Nevertheless find a way to accommodate your team in the best conditions that are, at the best price, at the same location, without being forced to move every 2 days.
We take up the challenge and start visiting all hotels and Penzions of the city!
3 hours later, buttressed on a calculator and a calendar, we try to take stock and chat on the rustic charm or post Soviet pensions of the city.
The technical team, partly for its part, conducted a thorough expertise of transport modes offered by the city: they took the tram to the station !!!
We resolve to share our discoveries of the day around a fat repairing dinner, because we finally understand the usefulness of a good layer of fat among polar bears.
And finally we rest at the Kelt to the rhythm of pipes and flutio on oak tables of 70 kg each… Ambiance drakars and sacrifices to the God Odin Viking !
But where can we eat slovak in this city ?

Nie voda ! Vodu, prosim ! Jebat !
(= Very rude, prohibited to girls ! No water ! I want some water pl'ase = It can be the limit !)
What progress in Slovak, we are torn but almost bilingual…
Let's use this advantage at Café Terrìa: Dobre dien Pan, kavu jeden prosim. Dakujem ! Pretty proud of almost doing sentences.
We learn at the café, through the press, that a local water pipeline has exploded under the Tesco (supermarket at street corner), but obviously the situation is under control and is expected to recover by the end of the day.

Just the time to celebrate the event that Lucas arrives to take us to visit the Kasern. Some evil spirits may believe that we are here on vacation… not at all ! Today is Monday : the week-end allowed us to make references, we can start working on the ground.
The Kasern is a former military barracks that was abandoned about 3 years ago.
We expect a wasteland à la française : no water, no electricity, a breathtaking cold, squatts in all directions and apprehension to see security dogs in a minute…
Not at all !  One could almost live in it. And we start thinking of it for our 3-week residency in April.
Magnificent place... Wilfrid and Rodolphe finally freely  express their Art : this measures, scribbles, models, tests, calepines, films, block-powers, calculates electrical wire meters... In short it plunges into the heart of the matter!
Nathalie takes long inspired hauls, smells air, caresses dust, slams her boots on the cement, stops, looks to the ceiling, turns, twists her mouth, raises a hand in front of his eyes, resumes her walk… In each room… There are 6… Then again.
Selena landmarks, accustomed to Làhordistic experiences, all places where one could really really hurt, where people can fall off, can hide, roll, suspend, throw, climb above themselves… or not. In each room… There are 6… Then again.
Silence…
After 2 hours of this ride, everyone is exhausted.
Frozen stare, facial expressions and heard glances.
Then we break the silence : each gives the result of its expertise.  It resonates a lot here!
