Even before we begin to make our own choices, the world around us starts shaping what seems possible.

From the moment we are born, expectations begin to shape who we are allowed to become.

In this intimate spoken-word performance, Via Berlin brings these expectations to life through the experiences, contradictions and pressures that accompany us from childhood into adulthood.

But whose voice are we hearing? And how much have we already assumed about the person speaking?

Human 1 invites us to recognise the invisible rules we live by — and question who created them.
