Description
By Bénédicte Allard.
Audience Award — Scènes d’Automne Festival 2022.
A ballerina with a broken spine, Frida Kahlo dances through life as an eternal free spirit, transforming every wound into an explosion of color. In this vivid self-portrait of a woman with a visceral need to create, Bénédicte Allard presents us with a bold and provocative personal diary.
On stage, suffering becomes words, and pain is transformed into art that screams with truth. A powerful tribute to the woman who turned her collapse into the source of her genius.
