Peut-être le hasard, Agathe Charnet

When Marie-Pierre, 50 years old, a philosophy teacher, is stricken with Alzheimer's disease, her daughter becomes a young caregiver. She devotes herself body and soul to accompanying her toward a dignified end of life. Driven by the mother's passion for song and cinema—notably her fascination with the little donkey from Au hasard Balthazar by Robert Bresson—the show forms a vibrant plea for the power of memories connecting us to the present. Likewise, it affirms the importance of giving back to vulnerable beings and care in our society of speed. Following in the footsteps of her first show Ceci est mon corps, Agathe Charnet pursues demanding and tender theatrical autofiction work.
