Ta Katie t'a quitté

This duet moves slowly on Boby Lapointe’s song, composing a visual haiku where the body melts in the flow of words.

In a sandy setting dominated by a sky obscured by clouds, two young women dance while staring boldly at the camera, hum the chorus and focus on forming childish figures. There is a visual haiku in this duo where a few objects sum up Boby Lapointe’s song and where the body, in a slow pendulum-like movement, finally melts into the rhythm of the words. Words cut into syllable slices, sounds placed end to end that echo and mark the minutes. The singer’s art, halfway between nursery rhyme and fable, is marvellously enhanced by the talent of the choreographer Valérie Rivière: her art of pace, interior and unsurpassed, works wonders. Filmed by Eric Legay, dance according to the Paul les Oiseaux company is indeed child’s play.
