Inconditionnelles plunges us into the stories of seven women who, having lived through incarceration, look back on this life-changing experience with striking lucidity and generosity. Their voices, marginalized and rarely heard, resonate freely here, telling stories of resilience, love, and forgiveness. Each story is first and foremost one of survival, in a variety of fragmented sound forms that alternate between testimonies, stories, songs, sound effects, and snippets of conversation, and in which poetry always comes into play. A true demonstration of what community art and co-creation can inspire, this collaborative work by the Art Entr'elles collective is an invitation to meet and welcome these women into the public space. The listening session will be followed by a discussion.
