Outside eye:
LA MORT D'UN CERF-VOLANT (Death of a kite) is a circus piece, more precisely a German wheel piece. The artists, two girls, evolve by following a cycle, always the same, which evolves each time: the one of mourning.
They go through these cycles, always alternating - they share the load. She gets tense, the other one listens. She feels guilty and struggles, the other is there, protective, ready to support her.
Where they find themselves is in the game [...], and sometimes the disc gets stuck and they keep playing, obstinately.
This piece is about the courage to keep your eyes open when what you see is unbearable. Their goal is to keep each other awake, not to let the other fall asleep, not to let go, not to hide from each other. They want to open up, to erase all borders. A human experience, in itself, as simple as it is complex: sad things that make you laugh, funny things that make you cry. It is this experience that they do, in the end, together.
