After a fatal accident in the city of Kinshasa Esdras, Chadrak, Lydienne and Kadogo find themselves in a dusty waiting room. Stuck between two worlds, they are confronted with their past. At desperate speed, they search for a way to break free before their human consciousness is completely extinguished.
This multilingual dance-theatre creation takes place in Congo, a country close to Jenny Ambukiyenyi Onya’s heart. Immerse yourself in the world of La Sape (or “Society of Ambianceurs and Elegant People”) and discover unexplored paths! This creation questions the appropriation of the dominant culture and the complexity of post-colonial identities. It offers a model of individual emancipation in which the sapeur reaffirms his identity through his deep connection with Nzambi Ya Mpungu, the embodiment of Beauty in all its forms.
