Experiencing Interruptions?

What is left

A work of cinedance moving between dream and reality, presence and absence, memories and present-future. An impalpable atmosphere filled with the presence of nothing. What are the traces left on each other, on this earth once we arrive at the end?

What is left when there is nothing left? Intangible traces, perhaps. Relentless movement and hope, absurd yet necessary.

Director Biography - Elise Legrand, Pierre-Luc Racine

Elise Legrand is a dancer, choreographer and artistic director based in Sherbrooke, Qc. Canada. She develops her own artistic projects with a deep interest for site specific work and multidisciplinary creation which allows her to broaden the possibilities and perspectives of contemporary dance.

Throughout her career she has also performed with dance companies and shows such as Sinha Danse, Sursaut Dance Company and Danse Lhasa Danse, and has toured both overseas and throughout Canada since 2001. Most recently her first cine-dance short film, What is left, was selected to be screened during the Montreal edition of Biennale Parcours Danse 2021. Elise Legrand is also co-founder of the circus company LaboKracBoom, and singer and accordionist with Ze Radcliffe Fanfare.

The filmmaker, throughout 16 years of creativity, realized numerous music videos with artists such as Luc De Larochellière, Elisapie, Catherine Durand, Half Moon Run, Louis-Jean Cormier, Jipé Dalpé, Marie-Pierre Arthur and Alexandre Poulin.
