The question here is how to merge dancing footage with elements of fiction. What is the right tone, the golden proportion to tell and dance the stories without resorting to techniques of a musical or a ballet? New ways of telling a story: this is, without a doubt, a critical challenge for dance today. Twenty-one micro fictions by four dancers in which the educational aspect of experimenting soon gives way to the pleasure of joyful poetics: an original blend of tender insolence and strict elegance.
