Synopsis

Filmed in the streets of Montreal during a time of crisis, the performers improvised alone and in groups, without choreography or staging. Through movement, gesture, and presence, they each brought their own perspective to the camera. Capturing spontaneous encounters and shared moments, the film explores the relationships, individuality, and collective energy that emerge when bodies move through a common space.
