In Greek mythology, the Dioscuri are the twin gods Castor and Pollux. Symbolising young men of arms-bearing age, they appear like saviours when situations are desperate. Here, the androgyny of the performers – Mina and Ébène – creates a disconnect with the figure of the giants. Choreographer Marta Izquierdo Muñoz stages them like titans and exposes them in mirrors in complex games of diffracted reflections.
