Kinoabend: „Indes galantes“

In the organizer's words:

"Film off!" for francophone films: Every month, the Institut français shows a film en français in cooperation with the Student Council for Classical Philology and Romance Studies (KlaPhiRo) and the Schaubühne Lindenfels .

It is a premiere for the 30 hip-hop, krump, breakdance and vogue dancers, director Clément Cogitore and choreographer Bintou Dembélé as well as for the Paris Opéra de la Bastille. Jean-Philippe Rameau's baroque masterpiece "Les Indes Galantes" is reinvented by setting urban dance elements and lyrical singing in dialog with one another. From the rehearsals to the public performances, the documentary tells the story of a human adventure and an encounter with political challenges: Can a new generation of artists conquer the Bastille today?
