Choeurs en exil

Singing in exile

Nathalie Rossetti, Turi Finocchiaro, Belgium, 2015, Format diffusion : 1.77 (HDV 16:9), 77 minutes

In order to pass on an ancestral heritage, Aram and Virginia, an Armenian couple from the diaspora, take a troupe of young European actors of the  Wroclaw Grotowski Institute  on an initiatory journey to the places in Anatolia where this art once flourished. Along the way, their questioning revives the wealth of an eradicated culture, and  singing and theater become  the languages of creation and sharing, a breath of life.
