OASIS BODIES

Creation 2024

OASIS BODIES is a dance film project that explore interactions between our bodies and our environment. Based on encounters with residents from different backgrounds, choreographer Massimo Fusco and director Thibaut Ras create choreographic portraits that offers a crossed vision of the city and bodies in movement.

Oasis Bodies – Alive !

A group of isolated women discover the impact of dance on their bodies, gradually releasing their words and revealing their inner strength. Their movements become metaphors, gestures expressing long-held feelings. Their bodies in motion tell stories of strength, resilience and acceptance. This film is a powerful testament to the power of dance to heal emotional wounds and strengthen human bonds.
