Quema is an intimate journey through purgatory where two elderly souls reunite to revisit the paths of their lives. They reconstruct key moments from new perspectives, exploring spaces and dimensions of reality. A melody carries them back to their youth, and they choose to dance it from an unforeseen angle, embracing fall, vulnerability, and the rhythm of the body.
