Orlando

Published almost 100 years ago, the eponymous novel of Virginia Woolf narrates the senseless epic of a young aristocrat through the centuries and genres.

First a man and then a woman after a long sleep, Orlando is immutable in his personality. What changes is the historical context, the way we look at them and the social straits. Katia Ferreiratakes over this avant-garde romantic material and moves the present from writing to representation, extending the contemporary resonances of this bold fresco that describes an eminently modern fluidity of identity.

Between theatre, music and direct cinema, changes of costumes and focals, she orchestrates a succession of eras and landscapes around this romantic and dreamy soul, being metamorphoses and metaphor of free will.
