Taking place on a neutral empty stage, reduced to a pure place of address, IInvolontaires de la patrie goes back over the complex relationships between Brazilian Indians and the modern State: a story of domination seen through the postcolonial prism. Taking its elements from the speech of the Indian Ailton Krenak in front of the National Congress in 1987, or else the pamphlet by the anthropologist Eduardo Viveiros de Castro against the reduction of the rights of indigenous peoples in April 2016, this resolutely political performance expresses to what extent this quite clearly blocked situation is based on the utter negation of the will of the oppressed.
