La Trilogie Cadela Força - Chapitre I
Theater
We are in a space where the present collapses with the past, without early warning.
Resurrecting a performance in an attempt to find clues to an enigma so difficult to name, of a memory so incomplete to touch. What is the void between slip and die? What does this sleeping body dream of? How to go through this fragmentation between memory and dream, between imagination and feasible reality? What is done with all this information?
What happens when someone survives?
The first chapter of the theatrical Trilogy Cadela Força, by the Brazilian director and author Carolina Bianchi, transits through layers of temporalities. A bunch of layers of corpses of women. Since she was disturbed by the news of the rape and death of an artist giving a performance related to the belief in human kindness, Carolina Bianchi began to weave a tapestry of stories that have in common narratives of rape followed by femicide. Together with her collective Cara de Cavalo, she creates a journey into an abyss, a hole in the middle of the desert, a dive into a glass of a rape drink - a descent into hell.
Some scenes may offend viewers' sensibilities.
On Sunday 03 September at 14:00 at the Théâtre de Carouge, a discussion and meeting with Carolina Bianchi, Jasmine Abdulcadir and Coline de Senarclens will be held with the Centre Maurice Chalumeau en Sciences des sexualités de l'Université de Genève (CMCSS).
