In an undefined year, before the common era, Prometheus made a promise — and kept it. And was punished for it. In 17--, above the village of Chamounix, Switzerland, the Creature recounts its story to its creator. In 1818, England, Mary Shelley publishes Frankenstein: The Modern Prometheus. In 1995, San Francisco, Susan Stryker writes My Words to Victor Frankenstein above the Village of Chamounix – Performing Transgender Rage. In 2025, Portugal, a trans artist finds herself part of all this. All these, parts. All broken. All together.
