Youri and Marie

Dance duet about the blurry line between flirting and harassment.

Where is the tipping point between flirting and harassment? Lately, the topic has been discussed more often and it becomes painfully clear how relevant and common it is. Dancers and choreographers Youri & Marie take you to a party in this dance duet, depicting the refusal to see the other’s refusal. With a dramatic ending. 

Traces of violence are indelible and a victim’s life is forever different. There is damage regardless of the “degree” of the abuse, even if it seems light and ordinary. Its indelible traces remain and a victim’s life is forever changed.
