Synopsis

Danser les arbres is the meeting of beings by the powerful and fragile movement of bodies; by the connection of the senses and the feeling that invites the expression of the living. It is hoping for contact with these fragile and gigantic trees silently populating our existence. A deep desire to connect with this nature in a spirit of communion and sharing. It is an initiatory journey from the beginning of life to death, through the natural seasons of life.
The Danser les arbres project brings together nine artists from the fields of dance, music, poetry and image in a video creation project.
