Le grand bal
a film by :Laetitia Carton
It’s the story of a ball. A big ball. Every summer, more than two thousand people come from all over Europe, to a small town in the French countryside. During 7 days and 8 nights, people dance again and again, lose the notion of time, defy their fatigue and their bodies. It turns, it laughs, spins, cries and sings. And life pulses.
C'est l'histoire d'un bal. D'un grand bal. Chaque été, plus de deux mille personnes affluent de toute l’Europe dans un coin de campagne française. Pendant 7 jours et 8 nuits, ils dansent encore et encore, perdent la notion du temps, bravent leurs fatigues et leurs corps. Ça tourne, ça rit, ça virevolte, ça pleure, ça chante. Et la vie pulse.
