"Vom Schrei zur Bewegung" (From a Scream into Movement) is a piece under the artistic direction of Andrea Lagos Neumann / NaOm Teatro. It gives voice to stories from the Latin American dictatorships between 1970 and 1990—stories of repression, survival, resistance, and remembrance. At the heart of this piece lies the question: How can we keep these memories alive in a time when democracy is once again under threat?

Drawing from testimonies of survivors, the performance transforms historical trauma into embodied expression. Through dance, music, video, and embroidery, a living archive of voices emerges—voices that were silenced, yet refuse to disappear. These stories live on in bodies, in gestures, in art.

Conceived by Chilean choreographer Andrea Lagos Neumann together with Felipe González Berríos and Florencia Lagos Neumann, and co-created and performed by Rebecca Mary Narum, Lola Villegas Fragoso, and Felipe González Berríos, the work weaves together personal and collective memory as a form of resistance.

The voices highlighted are not only political, but deeply personal—many belonging to members of the FLINTA* community (women, lesbians, intersex, non-binary, trans, and agender people) who faced violence not only from authoritarian regimes, but also within society at large. Through this intersectional lens, the performance sheds light on how systems of power leave their marks on bodies—and how art can reclaim them.

From a Scream into Movement is more than a performance. It is a call to remember, to witness, and to take responsibility for the stories that should never be forgotten.
