NOS CŒURS INVINCIBLES | ARNAUD ALDIGÉ, STÉPHANE HABIB & JOHANNA NIZARD

At Les Plateaux Sauvages, theatre becomes a place of transit and asserts itself as a precious space where speech circulates. With Nos coeurs invincibles, two young women - one in Gaza, the other in Israel - address one another. Through their letters, we hear what usually, in the midst of war, does not meet: two narratives, two realities, two truths that coexist without resolving one another. A rare, necessary expression that seeks to bring forth a hope for peace through a dialogue that seems impossible.

Born after 7 October 2023, the real correspondence, made possible by journalist Dimitri Krier, between Tala Albanna and Michelle Amzalak—one living and having grown up in the Gaza Strip, and the other in Sderot, Israel—brings together two young women separated by a wall, a war, and opposing narratives. Nos coeurs invincibles lets us hear two voices that do not seek to agree, but to answer and listen to one another. Two voices that resonate for peace. A theatre where the coexistence of narratives opens up a space of complexity where no single truth prevails, yet no voice disappears.
