At the National Theater of Algiers, Ô mon corps! (Ô my body!) follows the French choreographer Abou Lagraa, assisted by Nawal Ait Benalla-Lagraa, his wife, working on the creation of a first Algerian contemporary dance training. For the show Nya (“Trusting Life”), rehearsals on stage, the ten dancers from hip-hop will gradually find the strength and energy to embody this “confidence” in front of the public.
Laurent Aït Benalla records the way in which, throughout the preparation of the work, the choreographer and his wife demonstrate a highly demanding attitude from their dancers.
