Invisible is the result of a role play game organised by Ana María Millán within the framework of the show Dystopische Idylle in Berlin, with the participation of the other artists of the show: Luis Bustamante, Blandine Casen, Caroline Cecilia Tallone, Daniel Desiderio Páez, Riccardo Torresi y Sofia Clonn. It tells the story of a group of non-human entities that start to alter their surroundings in different ways, because they feel a kind of disturbance or aggressive force is getting closer. They discover that the disturbance is in fact brought by phantoms of themselves. Playing Invisible is Ana María playing her game.
