GALLANT INDIES
Indes galantes
By Philippe Béziat
("BECOMING TRAVIATA")

Based on Jean-Philippe Rameau’s opera-ballet that was directed by
Clément Cogitore for the Opéra National de Paris.

This is a premiere for 30 dancers of hip-hop, krump, break, voguing…
A first for the Director Clément Cogitore and for the choreographer
Bintou Dembélé. And a first for the Paris’ Opera Bastille. By bringing
together urban dance and opera singing, they reinvent Jean-Philippe
Rameau's baroque masterpiece, Les Indes Galantes. From rehearsals
to public performances, it is a human adventure and a meeting of
political realities that we follow: can a new generation of artists storm
the Bastille today?

I HAVE BEEN WAITING
FOR YOU
c’est toi que j’attendais
By Stéphanie Pillonca      ("FLEUR DE TONNERRE")

"They are couples like no others: couples who cannot bear children
in a biological way and decide to go through adoption. From this
decision and the actual meeting with the child, we’ll experience with
them the sufferings, doubts, hopes and finally the joys of this life-
changing journey. With throughout the film, this underlying question:
What makes a family? How does this unfailing bond between a child
and his/her parent form?"

 Nica, 21, drops out of her university course in agronomics and returns home to Apulia in southern Italy after three years
away. She finds her father deep in debt, a polluted, devastated region, and olive trees destroyed by a parasite. Everyone
 seems to have given up in the face of the vast ecological disaster, while her father is obsessed with uprooting the olive
  grove to make money from the land. Nica fights with all her might to save the ancient trees. But the pollution has also
                     contaminated people’s minds, and she will have to face unexpected obstacles...
