The concept of bad luck is often attributed to something external and beyond our control, making us feel helpless in the face of events we perceive as negative. However, if we took greater responsibility for what happens to us, if we approached life with greater openness to change, we could develop more pleasant experiences and enrich our awareness. But first of all… does bad luck exist? Or is it just our minds and everything that happens around us, in the world, over which we have no control, that scares us? Courage. Bad luck doesn't exist develops an artistic reflection on the concept of the Self, through a surrealist choreographic composition rich in movement and music. A solo-duet in which a man confronts his mind and his alter ego, depicting the complexity of the human psyche, which perhaps hides its true strength in irrationality. Moments of recklessness alternate with others of love, with the aim of acquiring the courage needed to face difficulties, unravel chaotic thoughts, and learn to be resilient.
