Joy as resistance. Palestinian choreographers Ata Khatab and Amir Sabra reinvent the traditional dabkeh in a vibrant journey where celebration blends with everyday movements. Born out of a collaboration with the laGeste company, Badke(remix) brings together ten performers in a choral spectacle driven by momentum, solidarity and a contagious vitality. A collective dance that asserts, with unyielding energy, the right to exist to the full.
