I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men.
Marlene Dietrich

Late in the afternoon Jackie arrives to her birth town. While visiting her cousin she remembers that she had left the keys of her apartment in Belgrade. She decides to take a quiet stroll across her birth town, which she had left long ago, in 1989. The performance is inspired by the sentence: "The ultimative performance is your life."
