The Power (of) The Fragile: An Intimate and Unexpected Cross Portrait of a Mother and Child Relationship – Latitudes Contemporaines Festival #21

The Power (of) The Fragile is an encounter between choreographer Mohamed Toukabri and his mother, whom he invites on stage after several years of separation.
The Power (of) The Fragile is the union of two worlds, two bodies, two generations, two spirits. Before our eyes, genres and ages blur, body weights change direction, borders blur. Where does one begin, where does the other end? Mohamed and Latifa Toukabri share with us an intimate and organic journey on what the relationship between a mother and her child can be, on what it means to leave home, on being separated and being together. . A tender and unexpected cross portrait, which plays with fragility and gives it back all its power.
