Portrait d'une femme ordinaire... is the final part of a dance triptych. Each one portrays a self-taught artist who, playing his or her own role, reveals on stage one's dreams and fragilities. There is Louis, a former C&A executive who falls in love with dance when retiring, there is Bertrand, a computer engineer, who exposes on stage his body and his femininity, but also embraces life's finitude. Finally, Josiane tells us with humour and delicacy the story of a body and a life in transformation.
