Program notes
Documentary about Odile Duboc, French dancer and choreographer (1941-2010).
Odile Duboc was born in 1941 in Versailles, and began a ballet training before becoming a few years later a renowned and auto-didact pedagogue. In 1983, she founded the dance company Contre Jour, with Françoise Michel, lighting designer. With her dancers, Odile Duboc imagined the Projet de la matière, which made her one of the greatest contemporary dance choreographer. From 1991 onwards, she was a the head of the Centre chorégraphique national de Franche-Comté, in Belfort. She died of cancer in 2010.
Along with Odile Duboc's comments and stories, this documentary shows us excerpts of Three Boleros, one of the main works of the choreographer created in 1991, which offers three different musical interpretations of Ravel's Bolero. This film also highlights Odile Duboc's sensitivity, whose complex, meticulous and graceful creativity made her a world-renowned artist.
