Sandra Iché
Wagons libres
- Performance Dance
- Sat 22.02.14 20 h
In 2000, Sandra Iché wrote a history of ›L’Orient-Express‹, a Beirut based francophone magazine from the 1990s. 10 years later she conducted a new series of interviews with former contributors to the magazine set this time though fictively in the future. The interviews take place in 2030 and place the viewer in the position of looking at present occurrences and incidents in the Arab world as though they were memories from the past.
Employing oral and visual archive material, fragmented photos, film stills and choreographic elements, ›Wagons libres‹ questions the art of documentary and how we perceive it – is it truth, an aspect of reality, or fiction?
Starting from 19 h, the film ›Cairography‹ (video dance /documentary) from Dalia Naous and Kinda Hassan can be seen throughout the evening. Egypt 2013, English surtitles, length 18:36 minutes (playing in a continuous loop), entrance free
