Bratislava in movement: Les Idoles (FR): Reface + Fran Diaz (DE): Born by the Sea

Les Idoles (France): Reface

Two women in a constant yet imperceptible, hypnotizing movement

The unique and visually engaging female duet Reface is based on the idea of transformation, deformation and change. Everything is changing, our bodies, memories, social environment, nature, love relationships, political forces… Two permanently moving bodies undergo a constant transformation and deformation that hypnotizes the viewer. Reface intends to make visible this state of transition and the imperceptible and constant metamorphoses that express the complexity of who we are. 

Fran Diaz (Germany): Born by the Sea

A dynamic and fluid dance performed by two exceptional dancers

Born by the Sea by choreographer Fran Diaz from Germany is a duet of dancers working together as two well-oiled machines. Their movement is clean, sharp and plastic at the same time, it has a refreshing effect and resembles the mating ritual of two predators. Their bodies represent living archives, reminding us of the traces of the past, which can strengthen us, but also hinder us.

This event is organised by the Bratislava in movement festival, so the A4 annual membership card does not apply.
