Dancing Paths

Series of dance films directed by Virginie Combet at the « Jardin des Deux Rives de Strasbourg », based on the work of contemporary choreographers.

Produced by the city of Strasbourg 2004/2007

Dancers leave their costumary space to create landscapes versions of their choreography in the Jardin des Deux Rives, which takes place on the border between Strasbourg (France) and Kehl (Germany). By their specific and close relation to nature, light and the audience, suddenly so close, they propose us partitions full of poetry.
