(Switzerland) Corps 00:00
italian premiere

running time 50 mins.

A body connected to a machine that can transmit electrical waves, the space, the movement and the music by four composers: these are the ingredients for Cindy Van Acker’s challenging new project. The focus is on the human being in the flesh, the physiological matter as a mass subjected to the force of gravity. The question is simple: how is it possible to manipulate the mental control over the body, overcome its resistance and make it move without intellectual impulse? The answer is a dialogue between real and surreal, an optical illusion where physical presence seems to be converted into an abstract entity. A powerful, moving performance, which will leave a mark.
