Spectacle "François s'appelait Kao" à Salbris

François s'appelait Kao" show in Salbris. A whirlwind humanist fresco, combining narration, raw testimonies, dance and song. François s?appelait Kao is neither documentary nor fiction, but a journey. The story begins with a little girl from a small town in the Berry region of France. At school, she is the spokesperson for Kao, one of the six Laotians in her class. Too shy, she thinks, to answer the teacher herself. She grows up, she leaves. She travels. And she returns. Kao is now called François. He is? Why is that? So she retraces her steps. The thread of her story, that of the political refugees of the 70s, the thread of History, the thread of Exile. Compagnie Poupées Russes. Written and directed by Lucie Contet
