Rachid Ouramdane’s starting point for Les morts Pudiques (Discreet Deaths) was to search the internet to discover how youth together with death are depicted on the web. The piece explores the death penalty for young offenders in the USA, suicide attacks perpetrated by young Muslims, the teenage penchant for gothic wear as an expression of rebellion and new trends in youth suicide. The dance itself is shaped by the search results and is expressed as a sequence of mortal transformations.
