From a Parisian Métro platform below to the night streets above, one woman decides to go against the current in “Contresens.” Her defiance bubbles up through expressive facial contortions that build to a freewheeling dance motivated from deep within. As her confidence grows, she discovers the sheer pleasure of each movement, coming fully alive in her body through the catharsis of dance.
