Käfig: Mosaïk
Over nearly 30 years, Mourad Merzouki has contributed to the evolution of hip-hop dance. From boxing to the circus, through classical music or aerial dance, from one creation to another, the spectator is taken into a new universe. Created in May 2024 in Togo, Käfig: Mosaïk is an "all-terrain" choreographic piece, which brings together five dancers to reinterpret excerpts from shows whose universes echo each other in a journey through the artistic journey of the Käfig company, all done in one fluid dance piece.

Sade: Bring Me Home Live in California
This Grammy-nominated film captures Sade's mesmerizing 2011 arena concert in Ontario, California, featuring their million-selling hits, including "Smooth Operator" and "Your Love Is King." This sold-out show was part of a 106-date world tour that captivated over 800,000 fans. Sade Adu’s distinctive vocals, often compared to Billie Holiday, lead a tight-knit group of musicians: guitarist Stuart Mathewman, bassist Paul Denman, and keyboardist Andrew Hale, all of whom are clearly passionate about their craft.
