Dancing in A-Yard

‍Thursday, June 26, at Espace C2 at the Pullman Paris Montparnasse, Attend the Screening of the Documentary Dancing in A Yard Made by Manuela Dalle, in the presence of the director, the choreographer Dimitri Chamblas and a member of the dance troupe.

This moving film follows an extraordinary experience: the introduction of contemporary dance in a high-security prison 60 kilometers from Los Angeles. Ten prisoners, sentenced to heavy sentences, participate in an artistic project led by Dimitri Chamblas. In a world where toxic manhood is the norm, dancing becomes an act of courage, liberation, and profound humanity.

Through Their Bodies, Their Stories and Their Gestures, these men speak a moving word about childhood, violence, confinement, but also about their desire for evolution and reinvention.
