– 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, it will be a combat without winners or losers. A stunning film adaptation of the “Ölelés” performance by Jordi Cortés Molina and Damián Muñoz, where Clara van Gool shows how the language of videodance presents a sensitivity similar to some fantastic cinema.
