Spain | 2016 | 60’ | dance, theatre | Spanish and Japanese

Three Japanese dykes submerged in a trip. Japanese contemporary punk. Transfeminism in Wa ancient history. Butoh in cherry blossom gardens with Miya Misaoka. Shared fluids intimacy. To dance over and over again. Motherhood in solitude with the sound of flies. Domestic actions together at home. Love. To talk about fear and harassment. To dance over and over again. To stand up, to react, to join for self-defence. Invisibility against unquestionable “machos”. To speak in Japanese. Traditions that crush us. To dance over and over again. To dance over and over again. To dance over and over again.
