Aïcha M’Barek and Hafiz Dhaou explore movement without breathing.

“Rapture of the deep” is the name given to narcosis. The choreographers Aïcha M’Barek and Hafiz Dhaou, born in Tunis and now based in Lyon, have explored this bodily state as a metaphor for a suffocated society. In Narcose, they apply a radical approach resulting in a dense, interiorised gestural language. The dancers’ bodies are carried away by a musical groundswell delivered by musician Haythem Achour, aka OGRA. Narcose is a heady sensory experience that sends spectators diving into the depths of rapture.
