In the near future, human beings still speak, publish and express themselves, but no one truly hears anyone anymore. Words still exist; the voice, however, has disappeared. The world has become incapable of listening. Some people say that, once upon a time, voices travelled freely between human beings, like migratory birds. They were called the Murmures.  Giovanni Zazzera moves through an innovative sound system in which the dancers generate sounds through physical contact, making their movements audible in real time. The sounds become extensions of the body, giving voice to the murmurs.  MURMURES explores what lies behind our silences: unspoken thoughts, desires for emancipation, and invisible forms of resistance that inhabit our bodies.
