    • Synopsis
    • Throughout the prism of performing arts, Neusa Thomasi, director of the Compagnie des Contraires, has been taking action in favor of the cultural life of Chanteloup-les-Vignes, the poorest suburban city of Paris.
      This movie is a woman movie ; directed by a woman, it shows us the work of Neusa, a committed woman, and the children that she follows and allows to dream.
      Place of poetry in the center of the asphalte and symbol of its success, the solid circus tent was ravaged by arson in 2019, real act of opposition to municipal politics.
