Le Grand Jour

It is the day of La Mère's funeral. In the kitchen, around a meal too rich for the emotions to digest, tongues loosen, silences explode. Brothers and sisters love each other poorly, talk too much, collide with tenderness or cruelty.With The Big Day, Cie Aléthéia delivers an intense and unvarnished family fresco. A theater of the real, between dark humor and contained violence, where the shadow of a mother still hovers over the living. Memories race, grudges explode, and truths – finally – are spoken.A tragicomic closed door, tender and bitter, where words become a last attempt at love.
