"Pororoca is a natural phenomenon caused by the meeting of river and sea water... It can uproot trees and alter the course of rivers, but it is also a fragile process resulting from a delicate balance of natural factors. Pororoca is a meeting of counter currents. It forms waves and alters shorelines, creating noise and calm. It drags, mixes, shocks and invades."
There is no music in this choreography by brazilian Lia Rodrigues. Just the sound of bodies colliding, the dancers´ fast breathing, shouts, cries... It´s tender and violent, it´synchronized and fluid, it´s loud, but there are silences that enhance all these feelings and sensations. It was pororoca.
