“Soft Spot” is a science fiction drama performance series choreographed by Przemek Kamiński. The show, released in May 2018, stars Przemek Kamiński, Suvi Kemppainen, Julia Plawgo and Alistair Watts. Set in the fictional city of Berlin, Germany, in the late 2010s, it portrays four strangers whose lives become connected due to a strange dream.
The first season focuses on the group’s search for the legendary soft spot, amongst supernatural events happening around the city. It consists of five episodes – “What we saw in the dream”, “Full Moon”, “The Cave/Time Warp”, “I Knew You Were Waiting” and “To the Mountain/Nucleus” – that can be presented separately or in any order. Each of them reveals a different part of a choreographic mystery.
