BODY TERRITORY

Rope, knife throwing

BODY TERRITORY talks about these stories that silence us, where law is absent and justice is rare, or non-existent. On stage: three women, one rope, and a lot of knives. A feminist western that gives voice to grandmothers, migrant women, and women who have been judged or condemned. A polyphonic rebellion looking for a better world.
