Mange la vie avec les doigts

Three strange men arrive with nothing but a double bass, a ukulele and a collection of accordions. They seem stunned. As if they were recovering from a severe fall after a long glide. They listen to their hearts beating, their breath, their neighbour's breath, the cracking of the pavement, the rustle of the leaves, the reverberation of the stone walls, the passing clouds.... 'We're here, but I'm surprised we're still here'. The tone is set. Through offbeat observations, wordplay, music and polyphonic song, they will attempt to reacclimatise to the world, to weave together strands of humanity. 'Anne Kaempf, Valentin Bellot and Matthieu Beaudin, three artists with multi-disciplinary and protean backgrounds, are inviting us to open a parenthesis of sensitive listening. As they perform a strange ballet combining body and words (or words of pain?), clowning and extravagant acrobatic stunts on instruments, the trio unfolds a series of absurd and burlesque situations. You'll laugh, you'll smile, you'll be seduced. Eating life with your fingers? And how!
