Two travellers from space make a stop on Earth with a mission: to discover what it means to be human. They’ve already gathered a few facts, such as the existence of time and money. From cartoons, they’ve learned how humans might move. But everything people do seems strange – the way they talk sounds slightly off, and their fashion choices are oddly amusing. Some questions remain unanswered, and not just for the aliens. Was geht, Erdling? is a humorous and playful attempt by choreographers and dancers Caroline Beach and Saida Makhmudzade to explore human habits.
