Through the eyes of a child, NUEX portrays the inability of human beings to expose themselves in order to reconnect with each other. The family has reached its breaking point. If they do not unite, the days of decadent debauchery are counted. Our planet is dry and our plates are soon to be empty. Are we aware of what is happening under our table? What is happiness and what makes us human? Photos © Cia Nadine Gerspacher

Bird Dog is a (danced) road movie, a trip that alters the perspective of the participant’s daily life, driving them to question their cultural identity. The journey happens live, it is not pre-recorded, an ephemeral act taking place in the streets of Tokyo, Lisbon, Washington DC and The Hague - a site specific piece. Four performers connected through their devices, sharing a physical and sensorial experience to produce internal alterations: the body moving the spirit. The celebration of a passage: a remote ritual to transform their perception of the public space and engender a community of resonance, capable to experience harmony and common rhythm.

Brots Transhumants is an artistic documentary created and edited live during an artistic transhumance. The artists propose a journey in a territory, along which they will react with what they are encountering; people and places, building a unique experience. They create from a body that adapts, advances and wants to know. An important concept is the physical fatigue as an interesting place from where to sustain the creation. Photo Arnau Pascual

Cossoc is a hypnotic choreography filled with suggestive images of what two bodies in constant balance can do. A movement research about the complexity and simplicity of a relation. An integration with the surroundings, leading on a path of calming down and listening. Through the eye of the filmmaker, Ignasi Castañé, the work offers a combination of striking visual images of the two bodies in constant conversation at the deserted landscapes of Castell de Sant Ferran. The film gives an insight of the detailed sensitivity of touch as well as the true riskiness and fragility of the physical language. Photo Ignasi Castanyer

The short 'Gizaki' by dancers Lali Ayguadé & Akira Yoshida, with the direction of Edu Pérez, reminds us of the helplessness of being in solitude, the absence of company and the sinking of the soul in its encounter with loneliness.

Gizaki

A dance film based on the Passion of Christ.
We see how the soul leaves its body in the form of a flying jacket, but returns to merge in a dance of transubstantiation. As when we are pushed until we lose our balance and, stumbling, the steps have become a "scratched bulería" to recover the vertical axis. We have arrived, together, in a new space-time.

Through a dialogue between movement and landscape, Lazarus reflects on the objectification of the woman body in film. The famous quote by Edgar Allan Poe "the death of a beautiful woman is, unquestionably, the most poetical topic in the world" triggers a succession of falls and recoveries that escape the poetic by trying too hard to find it.

'Parrà' is the old Catalan conjugation of the verbal form "will appear". “Parrà expresses duality in tradition: root and structure. A dialogue between voice and movement, ruralism and contemporaneity, form and change. Through the review of musical pieces such as “El cant de la Sibil·la” (Mallorca) or dances such as “Stella Splendens” ( The Red Book of Montserrat) we find -at the origin of these pagan practices- opportunities of expression that challenge us for its beauty. The study of the essence that we perceive in these materials and our free interpretation and resignification, are the content of 'parrà' Photos Nora Baylach

Rastrofonías explores the choreographic and plastic relationships between sound, body and architecture. The body is guided by invisible sound phenomena through the passageways of a museum. Dragged by the architectural psychophonies where space changes its concrete forms to emanate other landscapes, the body slides into unknown modes of perception, returning in a loop to its own internal space of listening.

How can water excavate marble? In search of a stable identity through the flow of existence, SOURCE was born. This short film, performed and directed by artist Guido Sarli, captures the contrast between the human body and a travertine quarry. A natural space that has been modified by humans and somehow it is still looking for a new identity. While water and rocks tell their own story, the dancer inhabits the space of the quarry with lightness and respect - it has already been heavily affected by human intervention.

'Tradere' investigates certain western traditional practices that involve the body; a body that exposes itself and sacrifices its physical integrity by putting it at risk and at its limit. All for the sake of tradition, belief, and esteem, or for the sake of creating a communal festivity.  Photos Jofre Moreno

Jungla is the film created from the show with the same name where you see bodies that are camouflaged, bodies that shine, float, bounce, stretch and constantly change. On a trip through this ecosystem, all kinds of creatures, shapes, colours and sounds might appear.

Mercat says goodbye to the year with an extensive and varied programming of video dance films. Some of the works have been co-produced by Mercat de les Flors and have been presented throughout the season on Citerne.live. Other finalist and winning pieces from video dance festivals in which the Mercat has participated are also added. Now we have a new and unique opportunity to enjoy them with this compilation of the season.
These pieces can be seen in the same pack (which will cost € 8) from 12 noon on Tuesday, December 28 until 12 midnight on Wednesday, December 29.


In NOCTURNE REQUIEM, the different parts of the liturgy of a Requiem, are replaced by new and personal scenes, full of songs and dances inspired by the choreographic and filmic universe of Bob Fosse. A ritualistic experience between legacy and parody, humour and tenderness, to reflect on the beauty of death. A nocturne cabaret, full of camp and glitter, to celebrate the act of dying and the inherent disappearance of any act of creation.

In her new creation, Eulàlia Bergadà faces the challenges of transferring into movement the forms originally devised and created from the body and from emotion. Through movement, music and words, Bergadà will question choreographic and compositional weavings and her way of understanding dance as an intangible form. This will lead to the creation of the real piece, the present, the ephemeral, a dance that goes beyond any form and ideal. **Photo © Elena Rotger**
