For this project the choreographer Alexandre Roccoli takes his inspiration from the dances performed within the frat-houses in Gnawa, Marocco, but also from contemporary urban culture, going from hip hop to house music. Through a mix of different artistic practices, Roccoli sets forth an appealing aesthetics alternating states of grace and shock. The energy and virtuosity of the brothers Yassine and Youness Aboulakoul pass on a crazy and irresistible desire to dance.
