Touching Two Worlds: Familia
What happens when the people who love us are also the ones who hurt us?
Familia explores the beautiful and complex ties that bind us — both the families we're born into and the ones we choose.
Through breathtaking circus arts and raw storytelling, Familia asks: what does it mean to belong? To break away? To find your way back?
This is a story of love, conflict, and the lifelong journey of finding your place — at the family table, in the world, and within yourself.
