Carolina Bianchi shares the stage with 16 men - actors, dancers and musicians - selected from a residency at the Oswald de Andrade Cultural Workshop in Bom Retiro, Sao Paulo. The show is an archaic study of passion, a sacrifice of bodies that do not deny their fluids: sweat, saliva, blood. With a dramaturgy organized in paintings, Wolf can be considered a moving painting. Performers form a chorus of crowd into extreme existence, in an unbridled sequence of actions / images: they run, fall to the ground, have sex with each other and recite Emily Dickinson's poems. The montage circulates in several languages, articulating text, dance, performance and theater.
