“Dominique”

“The word feminism needs to be reclaimed in a way that is inclusive of men.”

Dominique danced by Dominik Więcek, a sleek and slender young man, looks at concepts of manhood and womanhood, their liquid and contractual nature. His body, put in a socio-political context, turns into Her body, serving as a field of battle for the cultural concepts of gender.

“well thought through and with a good dose of humour” – Mirosław Baran

“a powerful socio-political statement” – Hanna Raszewska
