Atravessa Minha Carne

2025 · 83 min · Documentary

Footage of the creative process of Quasar Dance Company in 2013 in Goiânia for the creation of the show "Por 7 vezes" (Seven Times). The fabrication of those Olympic bodies (the work of high-performance dancers), directed by choreographer Henrique Rodovalho, reenacted the relationship between cinema and dance. Dance, offered to the film since Loie Fuller, is sublime, Apollonian, and Dionysically sacrificed to the ghosts of the image. As a former ballerina, the filmmaker returned to the dance hall and the stage, and what was documented as a process became, in the editing, a non-knowledge.
