Ghosts

After the music video Room With A View, (LA)HORDE continues its exploration of forms of uprising and revolt through dance and directs a new short film with the Ballet national de Marseille, in collaboration with the Californian production company MJZ. Based on a story by Spike Jonze and music by Rone, Ghosts immerses us in the Museum of Fine Arts of the Palais Longchamp, in Marseille. At the closing of the doors, figures occupy the deserted places. They walk through the different rooms, hug and tear, as if to regain their bodies, until they meet the night watchman who will leave the museum at daybreak, possessed.

Room With a View

The wind is blowing in the Châtelet Theatre. This destructive hurricane sweeps away all the remnants of a dying world. Shot just before the closure of theatres during lockdown, the film is like one last rave before the Apocalypse.

Cultes

The year is 1967: hundreds of thousands of young people gather in San Francisco to change their destiny and the world during the "summer of love". By 1969, Woodstock has given rise to the modern festival movement. What is left of it fifty years later? This is the art ballet group (La) Horde sceptical study of the modern music festival as a mass ornament and yet another manifestation of the culture industry.

Bondy

(LA)HORDE makes choreographic portraits of inhabitants of Bondy, in the northeastern suburbs of Paris.

Cloud Chasers

This film wishes to be a surprising and unexpected response to a commission by Lafayette Anticipation - the Galeries Lafayette Foundation, as it rehabilitates its building. Throughout the exploration of smoke sculptures created by cloud chasers, (LA)HORDE seeks to give shape to a latent moment within the Foundation’s transition. The smoke occupies the space with a volatile and magical aesthetic, exploring its potential to welcome artworks and artistic projects in development. It bears witness to a space in mutation, whose shapes are yet to be defined.

Novaciéries

A mysterious merging of cinema, performance and home video. A dancer practices his jump-style choreography in an empty steelworks.
