  • Popcorn and a ten-metre climb.

  • The tightrope walker Olivier Debelhoir is a brilliant artist with a taste for the unusual. And since he really doesn't do anything like everyone else, he sets up a real camp, where people get busy making fires.

They hold on to each other and start out on a wire that will take them ten meters into the air. It's simple, spectacular, metaphysical and, above all, very funny. An unclassifiable creation!
    And since you're so nice and we're standing here listening to them, let's make you some popcorn, shall we?
