Something is Approaching

Coproduction 2025
Carolina Mendonça - Something is approaching 16:9

What stories are imprinted in our muscles that a bullet could unleash? Can our muscles dream of less violent narratives in a collapsing world? After her previous creation, Zones of Resplendence (2023) – in which she imagined what an army fighting against sexual oppression might look like – some questions became inevitable. Certain practices demanded more time. In this new project, Carolina and her team continue speculating on how choreography and bodily practices can serve as a form of self-defense, this time focusing on the violence embedded in the social structure of a family.
