Sirens and Echoes are two important characters of feminine mythology, that besides the stories and the roles we give them, share a vocal history. Their words and voice have been judged harmful by patriarchal society. The vocal art that they master is considered as a tool of vanity, death, corruption, or lust. To give them a voice, the author creates an emancipatory and feminine imaginary that escapes any narrative or temporal logic. She mixes the stories of thoses two characters with personal film archives. Different narratives encounter in order to propose a new form, non linear, made of fragments, of sensations, spaces and languages. The succession of those narratives builds new images that are flowing or throbbing, inducing a liquid mouvement with frantic repetitions, similar to waves crushing against rocks. The waves, the currents and the vibrations extend bodies and connect them to one another, to other imaginaries and voices.
