We Were No Desert
In a desert, a group attempts to perform the pericón, a traditional folk dance. Their choreography breaks with the usual steps that symbolize belonging to a binary society. Their personal stories give an insight into how life in this area has always been an act of resistance for some. They resist the idea of conquest and the idea that otherness means emptiness.
