Sur les traces de Dinozord (In Search of Dinozord) is an adaptation of a 2006 work that paid homage to the murdered Congolese political prisoner Antoine Vumilia Muhindo.
Set to Mozart’s Requiem performed live by rising opera star Serge Kakudji, dancers and actors move through a landscape of ruins in the post-apocalyptic Congo, looking for remainders of their dreams. In spoken word and solo dances, they delve into the wrenching history of the Congo, recounting legends from their childhoods and mourning the loss of a friend.
Faustin Linyekula is an artist with a “live-wire intensity” (The New York Times). His riveting work often addresses themes of memory, forgetting, and dreams. With his country’s history as a catalyst, he considers the impact that decades of war, trauma, and economic uncertainty have on people’s lives.
