In this solo, Alexandre Castres, former dancer of Pina Bausch, acts the role of Monsieur Zero, a strange character who evolves during the performance and places himself on the stage in a universe of black film; a universe whose references are very varied, from Cioran to Pierre Desproges.
Inspired by the saying of a wise Chinese "I am going to have fun when dying, this is the essence of the game", Monsieur Zero chooses to question the image of his death, play with the forms which it presents, to better understand and accept it.
Through a mixture of dance, theatre and video - areas which the French Alexandre Castres has been working on along the years - Monsieur Zero involves the spectator in a voyage full of humour and poetry.
