En Corps, Cédric Klapisch, 2022

Une jeune danseuse classique se blesse et doit remettre en question sa carrière. Il y a toujours un côté kitsch / culcul / naïf chez Klapisch qui a tendance à m’agacer. Mais ici, l’émotion l’emporte, peut-être grâce à la collaboration avec le chorégraphe Hofesh Schechter et la musique de Thomas Bangalter de Daft Punk.

A young classical dancer gets hurt and must take important decisions about her future life. There’s always some naive and kitsch things in movies directed by Cedric Klapisch. But here I can’t help to be moved. Maybe because some elements are left to choreographer Hofesh SChechter and to musician Thomas Bangalter from Daft punk.

“Everything is going to be just fine,” says the voiceover at the beginning of the hour and ten minute long performance of Hofesh Shechter’s latest piece “Sun.” Apart from the 20-minute pause that took place Friday night at the BAM Howard Gilman Opera House due to a technical glitch with the sound, Shechter sets this piece up to be everything but “fine.”

Hofesh Schechter - "Political Mother"

Went to see last weekend the incredible show from the Hofesh Schechter Dance Company: Political Mother at the Mercat De Les Flors in Barcelona.

Live music from more than 10 musicians and 16 dancers on stage. The music was a mix of middle eastern strings, massive attacky-loops, electronic percussion, rock drums and heavy metal guitars. They are on tour in Europe these days, worth checking them out if you have a chance.
