SONIA GÓMEZ CALIDOSCÒPICA
SPAIN / CATALONIA
Two friends at a campsite in Catalonia: a safe space like a kaleidoscope of tenderness and comfort.
Nothing is feigned in the mental kaleidoscope of Sonia Gómez and Encarni Espallargas. Amidst the apparent chaos of a campsite, the encounter between two women transforms into an act of solidarity, care and shared joy. Through their life stories, they question the stigmatisation of certain mental states and the psychological violence endured. Their realities and imaginations intertwine, sketching out the idea of a life in a state of productive schizophrenia. They sing, dance, debate, tremble and comfort one another, building their relationship as if they were discovering each other for the first time. Thus, every gesture is profoundly authentic and human as Sonia Gómez explores the unmasking of social pretences through art, the body and performance. A great moment of openness and humanity!
