Shadows/Push Pull

A ditpych on the theme of immigration in two sections.

Shadows

Based on the previous piece Baobab Shadows this piece delves further into the reasons why young Africans elect increasingly to emigrate.

Storyteller: Manibi KoneWith, circus artists: Nadège Liénard, Enrico Astegiano, with dancers from the DTZ/DFC

Push Pull

This piece considers the strain and tension between an individual who emigrates and the culture he encounters. Different styles, face to face move towards common ground as a cameraman moves in and out of the dancers projecting varying perspectives of their interaction on to a screen.
