Being an islander is more than a sense of belonging. It is a mark that lives and accompanies you all your life, wherever you go or live. It is feeling complete in a place where others feel isolated. Free, where others feel limited. It is sometimes feeling the enormous need to flee, and always the brutal need to return. This dancefilm is about what we share who have grown up with the rumor of the waves marking incessant pulse. About those of us who have grown up in a place where we have the opportunity to meet who we really are.

“Frenesí” is a spanish word that means “a violent exaltation of a feeling or a passion”.
