Why do women’s bodies become invisible in our society after the age of 60? Combining theatre, music, and performance, choreographer Marion Blondeau tackles this taboo subject by involving three dancers aged between 60 and 70. Without modesty or pretense, she brings to light their worn or resilient bodies, and highlights the idea of transmission between generations through gesture. Far from the injunctions of youthful beauty, these three women assert themselves physically in a poetic and committed way.
