Maguy Marin – L'urgence d'agir
Documentary by David Mambouch
Documentary film by David Mambouch | France 2019 | 108 Min. | In French with English subtitles
She is one of those artists who dig deep – the lasting furrows shake lives. For more than 40 years, Maguy Marin has been establishing herself as a major and irreplaceable choreographer on the world stage. With her work, the daughter of Spanish immigrants happily and angrily slaps barbarism in the face.
Her biography and her political positions are a witness to her assertiveness, bravery and battles. In 1982, she turned everything that the public connected to dance on its head in her piece MAY B. A boom: the echo still hasn’t faded away. The journey of the choreographer Maguy Marin is a violent movement of bodies and hearts, an adventure of our times, immortalized and also passed on by the power of film.
