Raphaëlle Boitel / Cie L'Oublié(e)
Planned release : spring / summer 2024
Synopsis
Sylvie Bardan is a replacement tour guide and today she is getting married. Finally: she is waiting for her husband at the church.
Stood there, arrived late, she is not very sure of his arrival. She remembers their meeting: a hello, a smile, a dance... and all that they will live together, for sure; all that she plans, because it cannot be otherwise. Because she is a perfect woman. No ?
And if all this did not exist...
But by the way, where is she now?
Writing intention
A clownish and acrobatic ode to the difficulty of being a woman today, fed by injunctions that are constantly superimposed on one another in a quest for absolute perfection: to be beautiful, a good wife, a good mother, a friend, a lover, who keeps a good home and works full time...
When does it stop, the managing, the controlling...
And who takes care of them? Women who forget themselves, managing everything. And what place is left for the other? For the man? When everything that is expected of him is already projected?
This is the story of a bun-out, due to an overload of demands, of an inability to let go and to accept life as it is: fallible, fragile, powerless, but beautiful to marry.
