"Closing my eyes" is a reflection on the space of our dreams. A dream is like an out-of-body journey, another reality where the laws of earthly physics do not apply. Can we describe the color, the taste of our dreams? How do we feel ourselves and our body? How does time flow in a dream? Do our dreams reflect the situation in contemporary world? Do we have disturbing or happy dreams? How can we bring the atmosphere, images and physics of dreams to stage?
