About
Through a poignant reconstruction of police violence that has occurred in France in recent years, Constrain shows the expression of state violence against individuals. A disturbing staging, combining a green background and 3D sets, tells an unprecedented way of these acts of repression, based on persecuted and humiliated bodies. - Alice Riva
