Fiver 2020: Latin American Finalists 19/20

The international platform for support, exhibition and production of audiovisual dance, Fiver, promotes choreographic-audiovisual creation by encouraging the professionalisation of the dance genre by organising an annual festival of international renown from 2012: FIVER. After the success of FIVER 2019, which celebrated its seventh edition with actions in Logroño and Madrid, its two main venues, this 2020 and for the second consecutive year, the Fiver-Cervantes programme is being carried out within the festival.

With a selection of works by Spanish and Latin American creators and curated by Samuel Retortillo, it aims to offer a current vision of audiovisual dance through works that have been produced by Fiver or that have been finalists in its international competition. The works of prestigious Spanish film directors from three generations form a perfect selection to show how dance has become a specific language of movement, where the creator brings dance to life through the screen.

There are five works to be enjoyed at Fiver-Cervantes 2020: the winner of the special FIVER 2019 award, I love the maids for being unreal, by Sofia Castro (Argentina); the finalist, Babelian Circles, by Ferrand Romeu, and the collaborative works Fiverlabs 2019, Close up 2.0, coordinated by Esteban Crucci and Jordi Cortes, Wine or Grape?, coordinated by Álex Pachón; and Bailaora, by Rubin Stein.
