KNOCKOUT
Every individual has a part of fragility that makes them vulnerable.
Inside each of us lives an aggressiveness that must be known and managed, so as not to be afraid of it.
Elio and Francesco meet each other; together they create a ring of wood and ropes, where they can explore the different declinations of their strength.
In a series of metaphorical rounds, the protagonists try to compete, they investigate the possible consequences of their anger through the traces that remain on their bodies.
Gradually, thanks to the game of theater, the two find new and creative ways to sublimate their aggressive impulses, transforming them into artistic expression.
The intense, sometimes unmanageable, emotionality that moves them finds space in dance, in color, in play as antidotes to violence and loneliness.
