For his new creation, Angelin Preljocaj turns to the power of the collective - that vital force which, beyond our differences, binds us together and urges us to rise. He joins forces with composer Irène Drésel to sculpt this surge of moving bodies, driven by raw energy and so often compelled by necessity itself - a tide of motion bearing solidarity and hope.
