A choreographic and theatrical investigation into family relationships.
IE is a Japanese word meaning house but also home, family, bloodline. To conduct a fascinating investigation into “generational atavism”, the choreographer Cécile Laloy portrays a staggering tableau of a family, composed of six performers from different generations, in which incomprehensible and sometimes violent events recur relentlessly... in a rite-of-passage ceremony in several phases, inspired by a state of trance, bodies break loose and ancestors come back to life. The choreography – violent, visceral and convulsive –lays bare taboo topics and turns the spotlight on a buried past.
