Une vraie danseuse ne peut pas se tenir

Synopsis

Since the end of the 1980s, many dancers have left Senegal to find a better life in Europe. A majority of them are men, but a few women like Hélène also manage to hold their own and pursue their careers on this side of the Mediterranean. In words and movements, Hélène recounts her experience of migration, and conveys her irrepressible need to dance.
