They are both dancers and choreographers, but their worlds seem to be incompatible. The meeting between the radical Frenchman Jerome Bel and Thai classical dancer Pichet Klunchun is that of constant contradictions, but both men go through it with such generosity, affection and wonderful humour, that the impossible becomes possible in front of our eyes. They talk a lot and dance a little, yet this funny and moving piece succeeds to reveal more about dance, society and human nature than a whole festival programme.
