ARMOUR
Arno Ferrera and Gilles Polet (Belgium)
60 min | 15+
“It is not true that men are unwilling to change. It is true that many men are afraid to change. It is true that masses of men have not even begun to look at the ways patriarchy keeps them from knowing them- selves, from being in touch with their feelings, from loving.
To know love, men must be able to let go the will to dominate. They must be able to choose life over death. They must be willing to change.” bell hooks
ARMOUR takes up the question of masculinity, and in particular the need to transform violence, to open up the possibility of a plural and free love.
In a language of dance and acrobatic stunts revisited, this very physical performance is at the service of a relationship with the other based on trust and respect for intimacy.
At the heart of a tri-frontal set-up, in full view of the audience, the trio of performers open up a space of necessary fragility. They pose sometimes troubling acts and questions, without provocation or inhibition, in which gentleness and self-mockery find their place, in a joyful complicity with the audience.
