destructuur - confetti | 3rd and 4th grade

confetti 8+ Hooray! Party again! So much to celebrate! But also busy busy busy… Who actually has time for all those parties? And do we really need them all? Or do we just need a party-free year? That's a good idea! Suppose your parents, grandparents, teachers, or educators sign a contract whereby you have to celebrate all the parties of a whole year in one hour. What did you say? One day? No, one hour! One hour? That's impossible, right!? confetti is a playful and festive performance for everyone who is eight or has ever been eight. About always being busy, making mistakes, family, sadness, and comfort. A linguistic and visual search by makers Ellis Meeusen, Aline Nuyens, and Sander Salden for the sense and nonsense of our traditions, carried by a sparkling sound design full of festive sounds. A glittering happening that you don't want to miss. A plea for traditions in which connection is once again central.
