La Manufacture – Haute école des arts de la scène, invited two internationally renowned choreographers to each create a unique piece for the group of eleven graduates from the Bachelor in Contemporary Dance. The result is a dive into the young contemporary European creation in the form of a double bill program, each part lasting between 30 and 40 minutes.

Finnish choreographer, dancer and musician Elina Pirinen seized the eleven bodies offered to her and threw them together in a sensual and tormented attempt to reflect our perpetual search for freedom. Swelling into as many voices as a dissonant choir, they merge into a cantata telling of a painful and yet hopeful journey towards emancipation.
