Their lives were changed forever by the high school occupations of 2015 and 2016 in Brazil.

Using dance, live music and performance they tell their extraordinary story. Get up close to the action as real life invades the stage for a party, a protest, an uprising.

ColetivA ocupação is composed of students from different districts of São Paulo and they make projects that sit between art, activism and education. They regularly present their work at festivals and have toured to sell out audiences across Brazil.

Performed in Portuguese with English surtitles.
