The young Argentine writer and director Federico León was a guest of the KunstenFESTIVALdesArts in 2001. He is returning in 2003 to create a new work in Brussels: El adolescente.

“This is the first time that I’ve worked on a text that I haven’t written. I’m using fragments from several novels by Dostoyevsky that I’ve been annotating for more than seven years. His characters crystallise all the features of adolescence for me. The idea is not to reproduce their story, but rather give vent to this fever through a polyphony of characters by carving out music from their words and movement from their bodies.”
