Retra\u00e7ant la gen\u00e8se de la pi\u00e8ce Bow\u2019t Trail, de la chor\u00e9graphe montr\u00e9alaise Rhodnie D\u00e9sir, ce documentaire raconte le voyage initiatique que cette derni\u00e8re a effectu\u00e9 du Cap-Ha\u00eftien \u00e0 La Nouvelle-Orl\u00e9ans en passant par Rio, Veracruz et Halifax, sur les traces des peuples africains d\u00e9port\u00e9s en Am\u00e9rique. Inspir\u00e9e par les t\u00e9moignages d\u2019artistes, d\u2019historiens et d\u2019historiennes, de militants et de militantes qui dressent un portrait vibrant de l\u2019histoire de leurs communaut\u00e9s, Rhodnie D\u00e9sir renoue avec l\u2019h\u00e9ritage de ses anc\u00eatres \u00e0 travers les rythmes et les danses qu\u2019elle d\u00e9couvre, c\u00e9l\u00e9brant la cr\u00e9ativit\u00e9 et la r\u00e9sistance des populations noires opprim\u00e9es au cours des si\u00e8cles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Retracing the genesis of the piece Bow’t Trail, by Montreal choreographer Rhodnie D\u00e9sir, this documentary recounts the initiatory journey that the latter made from Cap-Haitien to New Orleans via Rio, Veracruz and Halifax, in the footsteps of African peoples deported to America. Inspired by the testimonies of artists, historians, activists who paint a vibrant portrait of the history of their communities, Rhodnie D\u00e9sir reconnects with the heritage of its ancestors through the rhythms and dances she discovers, celebrating the creativity and resistance of oppressed black populations over the centuries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
