This performance took place in Gravesend, England, where Pocahontas was buried after she died on a ship that was supposed to bring her back to Virginia/ USA. This is a place where the performance encounters and confronts the violence enacted through the fiction, fantasy and imaginaries about her, ignoring and making her real life and violence she had to endure, invisible.
