Un corps à soi, a film by Marine Relinger, 2025
Tuesday, July 14, 2026 at 4:00 PM at the Auditorium of the Collection Lambert
Elise Argaud, 48, lives with Parkinson’s disease. When she is not dancing, she moves very slowly, refusing a treatment whose side effects — and the doctors’ lectures — she fears. The camera follows her rhythm, accompanying the reinvention of her way of being in the world and of approaching illness.
The screening will be followed by a discussion with director Marine Relinger.
Marine Relinger
Marine Relinger is a filmmaker and dramaturge. She lives in Marseille.
She spent five years filming and directing Un corps à soi (2026, 75 min., produced by Les Films d’Ici), a work that engages with the movement and thought of dancer Elise Argaud. She is currently preparing a second feature film.
She has co-created several dance works with the Compagnie Shonen, including Phoenix (2018), featuring dancers remotely connected from the Gaza Strip alongside choreographer Eric Minh Cuong Castaing. She also took part in a series of performances involving performers with diverse, alternative, or normative abilities, alongside Eric Minh Cuong Castaing and choreographer Aloun Marchal: L’Âge d’or (2018), Forme(s) de vie (2021), Parc (2022), and Vision (2026).
Through this work, Marine Relinger reflects on ways of looking at bodies and on the role of cinematic and stage writing in shaping them. She explores notions of relation, systems of violence and collaboration, seeking to better understand how co-presence within artistic processes shapes both experience and representation.
