"For this ultimate creation, I wanted to celebrate them as the true actors of this original “Equestrian Theatre”… To show a ritual without memory, a ceremony where the viewer will see the animal as the mirror of humanity." Bartabas

Get ready to enter a joyfully macabre soul dance, unfolding before your eyes as well as above your head.

With again and again the horse, the safest psycho-pumping animal as ferryman, messenger and guardian angel.
