Southwind - Documentary performance

A steamboat built from scratch, all 3,730 kilometers of the Mississippi River and two European artists in the heart of the American states. In this cinematic essay, Maxime Berthoud and Marc Pozhlep take us on a two-month journey among the mythical, river waters in 2019. We see the people they meet and learn about the brutal reality of daily life in the cities of Mississippi - communities ravaged by poverty, with worsening a health condition caused by toxic industrial pollution and racial inequality.

The documentary performance is complemented by a live performance by American actor Davis Freeman.

With this essay, Mark and Max offer the audience their perspective on the Mississippi River and the United States, as their performance becomes the voice of the other side in its right of reply.
