FAIRE CORPS | An audio series in 7 episodes
José NAVAS, Françoise SULLIVAN, Margie GILLIS, Manon OLIGNY, Daniel LÉVEILLÉ, Mélanie DEMERS, Marie CHOUINARD: seven choreographers who have shaped quebec contemporary dance, enabling it to shine at here and abroad.
These unconventional creators have inspired countless dance, theater, circus, film and music artists through the strength and singularity of their artistic approach.
In the intimacy of a light-filled studio, host and contemporary dancer Marie-Gabrielle Ménard invites her idols to suspend time and look back on their entire career. A moment of encounter punctuated by dozens of testimonials and some surprising archive footage.
FAIRE CORPS is a series in French with seven studio doors opening onto the lives and works of artists who have made it possible for movement to become poetry.
