"Fabulous Dialogue of Cultures...three dancers and nine musicians tell the story of the djinn, ghosts that fight for their freedom. A tale in which every dancer and her ensemble present one specific djinn and one culture. The result - a thrilling multicultural performance in which Indian Kathak meets oriental dance as well as the passionate flamenco. And the artists pull off the feat of showing the uniqueness of each culture, with dance and music overcoming possible antagonisms and contrasts; the elaborate and authentic play of cultures, worked out by the Mexican director Shaday Larios, always remains a dialogue of cultures. The three ensembles are powerfully transporting this magic to the audience, making the "understanding of peoples" real fun."
