Nous sommes Cinema

Description

An experimental sound, video and performance creation by Julie Faubert that unfolds in the very specific context of the Cinéma Moderne screening room in Montreal.

Sound images, live light framing, projected video sequences: the nature of the image is constantly questioned. Through this play of almost synesthetic references, the darkened room itself is represented, activated, doubled, shifted, disturbed, even put into abyss. The Dolby Atmos cinematic sound diffusion system is exploited in an unusual way, to the extreme limit of its spatializing potential. Plunged into darkness, the audience experiences the many apparitions that reveal the performers’ poetic use of the space.

This work is the fruit of several years’ creative work in situ at the Cinéma Moderne. With the magnificent participation of Alice Blanchet-D., Jane, Jonathan Cantin-Demers, Maxence Croteau, Charles Hurtubise and Antoine Paradis.
