His child is forced to learn the way western children do, sat down in a classroom instead of outside in nature. Wind-Wolf is forced to abandon his

"It's like someone poured a litre of acid into my brain." Fear has always been a part of your life. Your earliest memories were of anger. Rage and screams. Caught in a war between safety and murder. You remembered the arms of your mother being the only defense from your father’s wrath. Her battered body only but a shell that served one purpose; to protect you at all cost.

The dance is choreographed by David Parson and has been performed by numerous dancers throughout the century. When I first began watching this piece I thought it was about escaping the darkness due to the numerous amounts of times the dancer fled from the light.
