What is a beautiful movement? And what would be the most beautiful movement possible? I am not an artist is a contemporary odyssey on the notion of beauty, a historical reference for art undermined by modernity. During a whole night, a team of dancers, singers and musicians, accompanied by many guests, sets out in search of beauty. Combining dance, video, song and living music, this twelve hour soap opera is a beautiful escape from the agendas, an experience of time and duration.
