As a teenager, Fer started wondering how it must feel to know that death is looming.
He had many feelings about it, mostly negative.
Until his therapist at the time, a woman who used to forget his name – but that’s another story – released him from his dread with a rhetorical spell:
“—You’re getting yourself paralyzed by the fear of death to avoid facing the stress of life.
You kneel before the only problem that you cannot solve so you don’t have to solve the ones that you can. What you fear is not death, Federico. What you fear is life.
—My name is Fernando.
—Yeah, Fernando. Sorry.”
In search for the meaning of it all, Fer is creating a personal show at a moment in which the grim reaper seems to be waving at him from across the street.
Fer Rodil is an Argentinian director and storyteller directly imported from the Buenos Aires theater scene.
He’s also a screenwriter, writing series for HBO, Amazon Prime, and Disney+, and producing web series.
In 2020, he moved to the Netherlands, following love and escaping inflation.
He now teaches storytelling at Mezrab Storytelling School, performs and teaches comedy, and directed shows featured in several Dutch festivals.
