’Port Bou' is created by the artistic director of Reflex, Patrizia van Roessel (formerly Patrizia Tuerlings). Four men and two women are sitting in a train station’s waiting room at the border between France and Spain. "The relationships she creates between two men and two couples are not exactly brimming with tenderness. It is as though feelings can only be expressed through an aggressive approach. And if there is any tenderness, it has an element of clumsiness." - NRC-Handelsblad, 1992
