In The Vertigo Studio, a renowned physician finds his life changed after saving Death from a winter storm, granting him the gift to save the mortally ill at will. However, this boon comes with a powerful condition: he must never defy Death's orders. When faced with the choice to save a loved one, the physician confronts the lady of the underworld herself. This non-verbal visual performance, based on the Brothers Grimm tale Godfather Death, is presented by Vertigo’s resident company 8ROJO.
