Synopsis
This dance short film brings three sensual and brutal duets to the screen. Three stories overlap to tell the memory; what remains of the nostalgic feelings of their union. The choreographies sublimate the cracks that human experience generates and which settle in us like so many emotional vestiges.
Themes
human relationships, dance, relationships, memoryBiography
Since the foundation of her eponymous company in 2009, Virginie Brunelle has created six choreographic works that have been presented in more than fifty cities in twelve different countries. Deploying a choreographic approach that is both organic and intuitive, her works form a repertoire characterized by the raw emotion and by the humanity of the subjects tackled.
