Maria Juliana is a performance born from an act of speaking out. The story of a Brazilian teenager, Maria Juliana, who grows into a woman, a student activist, and faces the difficulties of her own material and intellectual survival in the fascist reality of 2019.
After delivering a powerful speech about the dismantling of her country on the day of the National Museum fire in Rio de Janeiro, Maria Juliana was chosen to speak at a public hearing on Education, Memory, and Culture. Maju is nervous; she wants to deliver a representative speech. To prepare, she organizes meetings and invites cities and people from various areas to join in conversation. An assembly to build a collective body.
Maria Juliana occupies everything, including the actress Natasha Corbelino. Together, for the first time circulating through Europe, they invite this experience of performative conversation and creative re-existence.
