In
Next Day
, Paris-based director
Philippe Quesne
catapults us into another world, where extreme situations of the ordinary take place.
Thirteen
kids
(aged 8 to 11) are the objects of a human microcosm with uncertain boundaries, mixing dream and reality, music and languages, loneliness and the group. The small individuals, all to a certain degree dancer, artist and musician, form a bizarre community. Are they abandoned? Are they lost? Today they’re innocent & carefree, but who will they become in the society we’re preparing them for? And what if we would consider them – as they proposed themselves to Philippe Quesne during the rehearsals – as trainee-
superheroes
, gathered in an institute to save the world?
