The dance/cinema fashioned by Michèle Noiret is present here, with no camera, in a haze of reality-fiction, temporal overlaps, deliberately disrupted perception. On stage are four women, of various ages. Between them is a web of questioning taken from Siri Hustvedt in Vivre Penser Regarder, regarding human interaction, memory, imagination. Within them, intimate monologues. Through them, an onslaught on the conventions governing the fate of women, for so long erasing them from history, and even now threatening the progress they have made. Sustained from the start by literature, cinema, the plastic arts, guided by her intuition towards unknown territories, the choreographer crowns forty years of creation with Lignes de fracture. Her journey has been one of tirelessly inventing, together, step by step, “something that was previously unknown to us”.
