This one-hour concert celebrates the rhythms, songs and dances of Guadeloupe and Haiti. The first part is devoted to Guadeloupe and the Gwo-ka tradition, featuring rhythms such as the Léwoz, Toumblak, Mendé, Graj and Mass à Saint-Jean. On stage: René Burin on the boula drum, Roger Raspail on the makè drum, Annette Nicolas on vocals and chacha, and singer Gildas Lutin, with her powerful yet gentle voice. The audience is invited to parade and dance. The second part is dedicated to Haiti, with the Yanvalou, Rabordaille, Rara and Petro. Master drummer Kébyésou performs the great classics of Haitian Vodou, while dancer Nerlande Bazelais draws the audience into her spellbinding dances, so everyone can share in the energy of this tradition.

Originally created at the Bourse de Commerce in Paris, Dancehall Weather brings together Argentine choreographer Cecilia Bengolea and her collaborators Craig Black Eagle (Jamaica) and Nika Mad Spirit (Ukraine) in a performance where dance and video archives intertwine. Drawing from Jamaican dancehall — which Cecilia Bengolea sees as a powerful medium for healing — the performance opens with an Early Settings session, a musical moment of reflection and collective energy, before giving way to a liberating shared dance.

An encounter between music and dance that unites two cultures: Arabo-Andalusian and Flamenco. Although these traditions emerged at different times, they have crossed paths in time and space, both meeting on the margins of society. This show combines the depth of flamenco singing with the lyrical poetry of Andalusian moaxajas and zejel verses, interwoven with Eastern rhythms. The result is a jondo fusion of exquisite refinement, with a freshness that evokes the warm, fragrant breezes that blow over the Alhambra on summer nights.

Screening followed by Schindler's interview with researcher and artist Aicha Trinidad. This day focuses on the film trilogy "Tetuan, Tetuan, تطوان" by artist Adrian Schindler, whose film project examines the traces that Morocco's colonial past has left in Spanish society through an experimental collaborative methodology, addressing both cultural production and public space as well as the collective imagination.
