The documentary FEBRE DE BURRO is coming soon.

28th February, Miniauditório de Miranda do Douro, 21h

The creation of the show FEBRE DE BURRO was based on two fundamental pillars. On the one hand, sound memory: the Mirandese language, the sounds of animals, nature, silence, people, the voices that guide work in the fields, the sound of footsteps on the earth. On the other, an excerpt from the story of Pinocchio, at the moment when, for skipping school to go and play in Toyland, he ends up being turned into a donkey. Before the transformation, Pinocchio feels a fever — the DONKEY FEVER — which gives the show its name.

After research, residency, silence and listening, FEBRE DE BURRO by Rui Paixão and Dona Edite was shown to audiences in Planalto Mirandês in September 2025. The village of Póvoa, in Miranda do Douro, hosted the premiere, followed by five other locations: Paradela, Caçarelhos, Uva, Atenor and Sendim.

Now it's time to bring this FEVER to the screens.
