The choreographer Céline Lefèvre advocates breaking down the barriers of ideologies, with works performed by artists from varied backgrounds. Here, she proposes a work on the need for “disconnecting” from an overly-urban world, by setting out to recapture our vital links. The three performers, Céline Lefèvre, Giovanni Léocadie (Trafic de Styles Company) and David Gaulein-Stef (Georges Momboye Company), have fun as clowns, burlesque hip-hop dancers and silent films, a combination of dreamlike and comical escapes.

This work was presented in June 2012 during the Danse Hiphop Tanz 2012 Festival.
