Ferdinand will try to challenge his limits with absurd tests. This foreigner, who understands nothing of the local language and apparently has no sporting spirit, will show us how to connect through body language and gestures, with his failures and personal growth. Mal perdedor is a clown show that integrates techniques such as archery, opera singing, and circus arts.

The show premiered in November 2024 in Argentina. In April 2025, it premiered in São Paulo, Brazil, and in July 2025, it participated in the Montréal Complètemént Cirque Festival in Montreal, Canada.
