Compagnie Agathe dans le vent

Théâtre de l’Heure Bleue
(Belgium)

Trees as a living link between heaven and earth, roots symbolising anchorage and all that is hidden: it is in a delicate visual and poetic bubble that Laura Elands evolves with puppets, masks and sculptures. Shrouded in a warm light, a gentle succession of tableaux vivants come to life to speak of an oh-so-sensitive theme: mourning. The loss of a loved one that disrupts the landscape and deprives the body of the physical links that bound it to the vanished body.

Sayeh Sirvani
(France)

Deep-sea drunkenness is a disorder that can affect any diver during a descent in cylinders. Euphoria, confusion, blurred vision, loss of consciousness, anxiety, hallucinations… Your capacity for judgement is reduced, you forget; you don’t make the right choices in the right time, putting your life in mortal danger. The exhilaration here is that of plunging into a world of escapes, of realities that topple over; of words that you can’t say or others that you repeat to yourself to reassure yourself.

Skappa
(France)

Collectif 23h50
(France)

In the beginning there was the water, the sea, then little by little: life. Two strange divers set off to explore the deep sea. As they dive, they come across a strange creature that transforms, metamorphoses and takes on different appearances, growing until it is ready to come out of its shell. Au Fond des Mers draws a parallel between the aquatic world and the world inside the womb.

Cie PuceAndPunez
(France)

I’ve always been told that I’m going too fast, that I need to slow down, take my time. Hearing ‘Breathe, stop doing ten things at once’ makes me tense up inside: the feeling of imprisonment, of a space that’s shrinking and oppressing me. So I go for a run for an hour, sometimes two or three. In the woods. On my own. Running. I started because I wanted to hit. As a teenager, I needed to expand my space. People told me, ‘Go and run, you’ll come back when you can talk! I’m not sure I came back.

Compagnie Atipik
(France)

This is an adaptation of a classic of children’s literature, Hulul. Aimed at the very young, we hope to use short illustrated texts to explore feelings and the world close to children’s hearts: what is loneliness? Why be afraid at night? What’s big and what’s small?
