At first there is just a wall of shelves, they are white, stable and tidy. But what happens when Felix, the dancer, meets Billy, the shelf? Billy is stiff, strong, heavy and seemingly unconquerable. Felix is an equal opponent who refuses to be defeated: He lifts the shelves, he dismantles them, climbs over them and transforms the white all-rounders into a thousand other things they could be.
He climbs through the shelves into another world. He builds what he needs and embarks on an adventurous journey to a dreamland that looks suspiciously like the Wild West. He lets his imagination take over – not only his own, but also the imagination inherent in the object.
Handling the shelves opens up possibilities for movement, which Felix curiously follows to see where they lead. The imagination of the young audience also plays a decisive role.
