Directed by Anne Schwaller and written by Pascal Rambert, Huitante stages a violent, intimate encounter between two sisters whose long silences explode into raw language and sudden tenderness. Marie Druc and Caroline Gasser deliver a mercilessly honest performance that alternates cruelty and care, exposing childhood grudges and fragile attempts at repair. The production relies on stripped-down staging and concentrated acting to create a charged atmosphere of conflict and possible reconciliation.
