Synopsis:
This choreography by the renowned soloist dancer from Brazil, Ismael Ivo, investigates the role played by the historical past and personal memories in shaping the present. As noted in the programme, 'contradictions attract me. They are a challenge to look for a synthesis in my artistic work…This is the first contact with the history of my roots, with the origins of African Diaspora. It was the beginning of my reflections about life, death, rebirth and eternity.'
