Leading artists, filmmakers and researchers weaving through each other’s geographies and artistic practices together to keep building this place: Where we live
Sequences and scenes of personal disintegration and integration into a wider society and space, experienced by immigrants and locals in their pursuit to adapt to a new fast and ever-changing place, are common in and central to our work.

For Transtango project
“Singer is perhaps the most intimate, sensitive filmmaker working today”
“…Nisinman, an enigmatic half smile playing around his lips he coaxed chromatic impossibilities from the tangle of buttons and fingers at his left hand and lower, throatier lines from the right.”
“Une création de Jorge Bosso digne d’illustrer un film de Tim Burton né fut pas éclipsée par Martha Argerich en solo”
“John Turville … one of the leading jazz pianists of his generation”
“The percussive music of Sola Akingbola makes a vital contribution to a production
that makes you feel, even if you are seeing Hamlet for the 50th time, that you are experiencing it anew.”
