Conference

Staying in shape: making your body’s knowledge speak out

Coordinated by Sarah Andrieu, Alice Godfroy and Joëlle Vellet, University Cote d’Azur, CTEL, UFR LASH – Department of Arts – Dance Section of the UNS, MSHS Sud-Est.
In partnership with CN D Centre national de la danse et le Festival de Danse de Cannes – Côte d’Azur France, and with the support of aCD.

The knowledge of dancers when they perform beyond the body’s movement, is preferably passed on by word of mouth. Those concerned use fitness methods that seek to have the specific nature of this little-broadcast knowledge brought forth, orally. What relational techniques can be used to have the resources involved spoken about? What should be the fate of the infra-verbal equipment (eloquence of silence, posture, gestures) that accompanies the dancers’ words? Bringing together researchers and artists, this “colloquium-workshop” will question various fitness practices while bringing to light, directly through interviews, the performance and efficiency of the dialogical word.

Documentary screenings

In partnership with Cannes Cinéma and the CN D Centre national de la danse.
The Festival wants to develop a theme around the image and offers the public a film journey, in partnership with the CND (the new Dance Film Library) and Cannes Cinéma. A programme of films and documentaries on dance will take place throughout the festival, naturally in connection with the shows on offer.
As a result, we can enjoy in particular documentary films based on major figures in dance, such as Maurice Béjart, Sasha Waltz, Christian Rizzo, and better understand the career of Brigitte Lefèvre or the process of creating a ballet, for example by showing Titicut Follies,  a documentary by Frederick Wiseman and the origin of the ballet by the same name.

Free admission, limited seating available.​

POSTPONED to SUNDAY 15 DECEMBER

Durant un an, le réalisateur Thierry Teston l’a suivie de Paris à Tokyo et dans les coulisses du Palais Garnier. Elle quitte l’Opéra le 1er novembre 2014, passant le relais à Benjamin Millepied, futur directeur d’une institution qui est devenue la plus prestigieuse compagnie de danse du monde.

SAFETY LAST by Harold Lloyd

1923, United States, 1h13

Harold came to Los Angeles to make a fortune. However, he found himself stuck in his job as a small salesman. It was then that the idea came to him: suggesting to his boss that they advertise the shop by having an acrobat friend climb its walls. But, as it turned out, he would be the one that would scale this facade!

MAGIC MONSTER (2023, France, 1h30)

Preview – Documentary film by Grégoire Korganow
With Amala Dianor and the cast of the SIGUIFIN show.

 

There are nine of them, nine dancers from different African countries. In Saint-Louis, under the bite of the Senegalese sun, they get to know each other, work together and imagine a contemporary dance piece that reflects them. From this shifting material, choreographer Amala Dianor, with his attentive and demanding eye, moulds day by day the contours of a show entitled “Siguifin”, which in Bambara means magic monster.

 

With the support of Onda – Office national de diffusion artistique as part of the Écran vivant programme, Lux Scène nationale I Arts visuels + Arts numériques, Valence, and the Institut Français.

Free entrance subject to available seats
