Le break à l’œuvre (Break at Work) : performance and interviews with the group Sweet technique

As part of the first edition of the Événement hip-hop en Haute-Gaspésie a year ago, the break collective Sweet technique participated in an electrifying filming at the Maison de la culture de Sainte-Anne-des-Monts on January 9, 2022. During this shooting, the artists delivered a breathtaking performance and shared their vision of break dancing in interviews with the director Jonathan Gaudreau.

While waiting for the 2nd edition of the Hip Hop Event which is back this year, we are pleased to present again the docu-performance Le break à l’œuvre (Break at Work) for free! A little holiday gift from Mandoline Hybride, Sweet technique and Jonathan Gaudreau, to be seen online until January 7th 2023 only.

Le break à l’œuvre (Break at Work) is a 42-minute performance-documentary that chronicles the journey of three high-caliber artists from Sweet Technique and highlights the challenges of a dance that is both individual and collective, artistic and athletic. With robust performances that showcase the artists’ total commitment, the film offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of break dancing today, from the perspective of a Canadian collective.
