Life doesn't give Hector any gifts. The one from Leonardo Ferreira The hiker depicted in the film often loses control of his body. Driven by the wind, rain and storm, he fights against the elements and his own tent. He runs, he flees in search of freedom. La Fuite is a reinvention of the mythical circus figure of the clown. The piece presents him as an acrobat, dancer and mime. Leonardo Ferreira embodies a character battered by life who escapes from every situation in a surprising and virtuoso manner. His movements bordering on the absurd and his reaction to every obstacle transport the audience into a world full of humor and poetry. A small circus spectacle for the whole family.
