Au bain des dames

Synopsis: Every day, Joëlle joins her retired friends at Bain des Dames beach in Marseille. Like an open-air theater, they laugh and talk about love, sex, and changing bodies, and put the world to rights with the freedom of people who have nothing left to prove.

Organized by: CIDFF Phocéen- Marseille

In 2020, we wanted to create a unique event in Marseille for 25 November to raise the visibility of violence against women and gender minorities and introduce our associations to the general public.

25 November is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Established by the UN in 1999, it commemorates the three Mirabal sisters, Dominican activists brutally murdered on the orders of the current head of state, Rafael Trujillo.

For this occasion, we wanted to create something that would explore the difficult subject of violence from different angles. We therefore invited artists from Marseille to produce or co-create content related to this theme, using different formats and tools and engaging different audiences.

That is how J'crains dégun came about, and we are now opening its 4th edition!
