People have always dan­ced inten­si­ve­ly together, and under various names, raves have always exi­sted. In While we are here, Lisa Vereertbrugghen inves­ti­ga­tes the time­less desi­re to col­lec­ti­ve­ly dan­ce hard. She invi­ted Claire Godsmark, Dolores Hulan, Eimi Leggett and Castélie Yalombo Lilonge to col­lec­ti­ve­ly prac­ti­ce hard­co­re rave paral­lel to folk dan­ces that cele­bra­te joy and togetherness.

Without nos­tal­gia and with no fixed visi­on of the futu­re, the group brings to life a hybrid tech­no-folk dan­ce. While we are here works against con­trol and cele­bra­tes a col­lec­ti­ve physicality.
