Featuring the Compañia Nacional de Danza and local performers in collaboration with six local artists who participated in the Salvadoran revolutionary struggle, this multi-disciplinary performance weaves together personal stories of struggle, love and resilience through narrative, poetry, visual art, live music and world-class dance.
