Choreographer
"Labes" by Selim Ben Safia explores human resilience in the face of invisible wounds. Performed by four dancers and a live musician, this piece blends contemporary dance, traditional Arabic gestures, and personal narratives to celebrate the strength found in vulnerability. On a stage haunted by the shadows of a lost neighborhood in Jerusalem, it transforms pain into beauty and memory into movement—a cry of joy amidst the ruins, an ode to hope.
