Descortinar returns with books in hand: throughout this season, we return from the keywords of the performances to build other ways of relating. The flat image here will always be a mere starting point. The first stone fell to Alice Azevedo and the watchword is to depatriarchy. Is there a way to unveil patriarchy without doing so? Because it can't get any worse than it is, it's important to listen, read, and, above all, prescribe something else. Isn't it, Maria?
