CLOSER TO THE ANIMAL
"Movement. Intimacy. Resistance."
Directed by Afonso Branco
Marta Cardoso, a young dancer from northern Portugal, moves through Lisbon with restless energy, between precarious routines, affections, and a daily life in constant imbalance. Dance becomes her refuge and her cry: a space where the body finds freedom and instinct, and where gesture replaces words.
