Seven men celebrate the power of unity in a dynamic and acrobatic dance performance fueled by an unrelenting rhythm. This obsessive beat ignites their movements, infusing their bodies with boundless energy.

Choreographed by Fouad Boussouf, Näss (meaning "people" in Arabic) bridges the gap between the profane and the sacred, blending the vibrant, urban essence of hip hop with its deeply ritualistic and spiritual roots. Boussouf's work, influenced by his Moroccan heritage, explores the tension between modernity and enduring traditions.

The performance pays homage to the 1970s group Nass el Ghiwane (Behemian People), known for popularizing Gnawa culture and inspiring Moroccan rap with their poetic, rebellious lyrics. Näss weaves together past and present, creating a powerful dance tribute that honors the legacy of these cultural pioneers.
