Postérieurs (le futur n'existe pas mais des futurs insistent)
followed by a carte blanche invitation to Sébastien Ronceray.

Postérieurs is a timeless epic saga. Four dancers sing for the return, dance for respite, and read the future in the belly of a sea monster. In the belly, they saw a solar eclipse and the Earth’s apocalypse. As in primitive rituals, the poet (who can also be the dancer, the singer, the magician) masters a set of techniques and languages that could potentially solve the seemingly contradictory propositions.

Carte blanche to Sébastien Ronceray / Braquage

Taking as its point of departure an Apocalypse that emerges beyond our everyday perceptions, in the space of those banished from the City, this experimental film programme explores forms of trauma that question the very existence of ontologically human, but also figurative, narrative and perceptual references points. How is matter attacked, i.e., the matter of thought, and even that of creative tools ? What, in the human body or the body of materials might be saved, reanimated? This can lead to a sense of being born again, beyond our recovery of the world and its images.
