Juryquote:
"Bianchi manages to use overwhelming imagery, excellent research, pumping beats and punchy literary texts to create a performance that exposes the deep-rooted systemic violence against women"
What happens when someone survives?
The first chapter of the 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, 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.
The show premiered on July 2023 at the Festival D’Avignon – France
