Sinopse
FINAL GIRL is the result of an invitation from dancer, Rina Marques, to clown and director, Rui Paixão, to direct a dance solo for the space and the audience. In horror cinema, the term “final girl” or “survivor girl” refers to the last woman alive who confront the killer, the one who survives to tell the story. This is the starting point for a performance that aims to create a clownish plastic and choreographic imaginary. — Rui Paixão & Rina Marques
