Lukas Dhont, a true revelation himself since his first feature film, Girl, was awarded the Caméra d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2018. He chose to feature this new generation of talents within a “dance marathon”, these exhausting competitions which took place in the United States during the Great Depression, magnificently immortalized by Jane Fonda in a film by Sydney Pollack in the 60s. Through the artistic vision of Lukas Dhont, it is no longer a question of confrontation, but on the contrary, of solidarity and cohesion. Times are changing... Revelations draw their strength from unity.
