Presentation

Hitherto unknown to anthropologists, the Iota tribe was hard to find. It is permanently nomadic. Previously the tribe had many members, but today the Iota are in danger of becoming extinct. There are only sixteen members left. They like to fly with their feet on the ground. These are their stories. (Francesca Lattuada)

This is a multi-discipline show with trapeze, acrobatics, tight rope, song and dance. It is the final project of the 12th year of students at the Higher School of Circus Arts in Châlons-en-Champagne.
