Brazilian film and theatre director Christiane Jatahy brings her theatrical work to the UK for the first time in this arresting performance of Dusk, based on Lars von Trier’s film Dogville.

Attempting to escape the oppressive, quasi-fascist regime of her country, a young Brazilian woman, Graça, flees her homeland. She finds refuge in a community of theatre artists staging Dogville and tackling the question: to what extent is our society tolerant of the Other? At first, Graça is enthusiastically welcomed by the group. However, she later falls victim to exploitation and experiences racist and xenophobic attitudes — recurring themes in Jatahy’s work.
