“ Movement shock on the mountainside… In a region better known for its goatherds and granite stone villages, the festival contraDANÇA promises to provide a jolt of artistic shock therapy. Beira Interior, a rugged, almost lunar expanse encompassing the north-east of Portugal (…) host a multinational gathering of contemporar dance and movement theater, the first of its kind.”
