The word is freed to go up the river of ancestral memory and to navigate through the different facets of a multiple identity.
Multidisciplinary artist Émilie Monnet continues her residency at the Centre du théâtre d’aujourd’hui in Tiohtià:ke / Mooniyaang / Montréal by proposing an immersive experience in three languages (French, Anishinaabemowin, English). It combines theater, sound and video in a unique, circular and spellbinding dramaturgy. A series of dreamlike tableaus are woven together, where space and time are not conceived in a linear fashion, a true testimony to an inspiring filiation.
