Enemy in the Figure

Modern Contemporary Dance Theatre

Posterino Work Listing // #46

About // The title is inspired by a passage from the English language version of the novel "Call me by your name" by Andre Aciman. The work revolves around the intense psychological and emotional network in a relationship of a couple. At the beginning emotionally separated in two cones of light, they then find each other. The danced dialogues alternate between intimate togetherness, affection and rejection, power games, madness. Love and aggression intertwine. And in the end the roles are reversed.
