In this film, psychologist, performer and dancer Elizabeth Lewin tells how Arte Org body and perceptual therapy contributes to her work in Água de la Luna, an oriental dance group, and in Colectivo Máquina a Costura which, based on performances in spaces public, questions and confronts gender-based violence. Through their reflections, we delve into the topic of relationships between artistic creation, mental and bodily health.
