"Before, it took me three minutes to get dressed. Now, I take three minutes just to choose my socks."
Quand Didier Poiteaux begins his research on fast fashion, he has no idea of the gears he will put his finger into. Fast fashion is that mode of production of the textile industry, child of capitalism, which aims to produce more and more at lower and lower prices.
Didier Poiteaux and his accomplice Olivier Lenel propose a playful and non-judgmental reflection on one of the most polluting industries on the planet. Together on stage and in dialogue with the spectators, they seek to understand how our economic model influences our desires and creates new needs.
Between intimate journey, documentary work, and poignant testimonies, FAST questions our way of consuming. The show attempts to make our "appearance" to the world and the act of taking care of it, as well as those who inhabit it, coexist.
