Synopsis
“Everyone thinks I’m a cheerful person because I make them smile and sometimes laugh. But that’s not the case. Birds don’t always sing with joy. I’m a person like you. With the same setbacks and fears. Everyone thinks I’m a cheerful person. But that’s not the case. I’m simply a person with problems.” “Regarding Igor Stravinsky’s “Petites Suites” 1 and 2, 7 Men ‘in search of characters’… Humor, Love, Energy… My birthday present to the founder of Cisne Negro Dance Company, Hulda Bittencourt.” (Gigi Caciuleanu)
