The Great Ghosts

The Great Ghosts showcases a performance created by Yoann Bourgeois at the Pantheon in Paris. The film centers around the concepts of gravity and suspension, using the famous Foucault Pendulum as a pivotal element in the performance. Bourgeois employs trampolines, a turntable, and his “seesaw of frivolity” to create breathtaking choreography that balances beauty and fear.

For collectors, The Great Ghosts is available on DVD and other formats. Its unique blend of dance, acrobatics, and historical context makes it an interesting addition to any collection focused on performing arts or experimental cinema. The film provides a visual exploration of the physical limits of movement and the artistic expression found in challenging gravity, appealing to those with an appreciation for innovative performances.
