The artistic collective Os Possessos presents a unique performance in Traça, designed specifically for Bairro do Rego.
As part of the Manifesta Project, which aims to research, translate and present manifestos written after 2000, two manifestos will be read in an intimate manner to a small group of spectators.

A video performance created from films of Portuguese families at birthdays, weddings and gatherings. Carlos Tavares Pedro manipulates these images, provided by the Lisbon Municipal Archive, to emphasize the emotions and dances in the videos.
The images will be projected onto the screen, creating a calm and welcoming live sound.
At the same time, through dance, Ale D'Afrique interacts with music. The author wants to show the importance of these two universal phenomena, dance and music, which can temporarily welcome several people in a single space.
After the performance, the author's improvisation remains, what remains of the performance, an installation that will be as unique and different as the performance of the day that precedes it.
Performance – October 13th and 14th
Installation – October 14th and 15th
In the experience of being welcomed, the feeling of well-being arises when we feel included. In addition to sensory comfort, seeing and being seen by others is essential for recognition and inclusion.
