– Synopsis: “Coup de Grâce” is a movie about the shattering of a friendship, about what is broken and what cannot be broken. After a long separation, two men meet again in an enormous, remote building. During the course of the evening they’ll start a duel, a weaponless combat through dance. Delicate, cruel and beautiful, […]
A sensual, fluid, hypnotic exploration of a “human sculpture”: the bodies of five dancers pass, cross, follow, intertwine with each other. A video of dance, adaptation of choreographer Gilles Jobin’s “The Moebius Strip”.
The Moebius Strip, created at the Théâtre de la Ville in Paris during the spring of 2001 became one of his most emblematic pieces. “On the stage, viewed as a white painting, bodies are thrown like splashes of colors, mixed as tint areas and given rhythm by the shades of the clothes” (Rosita Boisseau). This creation evokes his father’s paintings, Arthur Jobin, which alternate between geometrical rigor and intensive vibration of juxtaposed colors.
