By Anton Tchekhov, L’Ours et la Demande en mariage is staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel in a spirited production that turns comedy into a vivid duel. The direction highlights the clash between conventions and desire, while set and lighting carve intimate, rhythmical confrontations. Through absurd yet touching quarrels the actors reveal tenderness beneath pride, exploring marriage, social rules and human foibles. Produced by Théâtre de Carouge with the support of Fondation Leenaards.

Directed by the association Grave’Side Family, this observational documentary follows a year-long grassroots effort that sends fifteen young people from Thônex to Ambohimanatrika, Madagascar, to help build a village water network. Through intimate portraits and sunlit, hand-held sequences, the film explores youth, solidarity and civic engagement, privileging everyday gestures over grand narratives. The camera lingers on labor, laughter and cultural exchange, offering a textured, human-scale account of collective commitment and the emotional rhythms of communal work.
