France / 2019 / 108mins / French / Chinese & English subtitles

She is one of those artists who dig deep and lasting furrows, which upset the lives. For over 35 years, Maguy Marin has established itself as a major and essential choreographer on the world stage. Daughter of Spanish immigrants, his work is a joyful and furious punch in the face of barbarism. Her career and her political positions lead to daring, courage, combat. Today more than ever, she calls for the priority to care for children, to transmit. In 1981, her flagship show, May B disrupts everything we thought of dancing, an explosion whose echoes have not ceased to resonate. The journey of the choreographer Maguy Marin a vast movement of bodies and hearts, an adventure of our time, immortalized and transmitted in turn by the image of cinema. An object mixing grace and anger, art and politics, all with the emblematic piece May B.
