Ruthless 

Hendrickx Ntela
Roxane Hardy

An odyssey where slam, rap and krump come together to create a dialogue between all the strata of urban life.

To open up the street like one opens up a path, there is Ruthless, an all-female collective led by Hendrickx Ntela and Roxane Hardy who, with their krump and hip-hop, embody femininity in all its rawness.

And on that same street, there is Z&T, the two rapper-slammers who roam the city on their sputtering scooters in search of meaning and truth. Along the way, glaring injustices alternate with spaces of urban joy and joyful diversity. Such is the city, uneven and unlikely. It is a world where everything is possible as much as it is a cauldron of poverty and violence. To tell the story of this teeming, often indignant urban world, Zouz and T.A move between lightness, humour, lucidity and confrontation. With blistering words and grooving bodies.

And all together – accompanied by sound designer and beatmaker YA$KA (Antonin Simon) – at this meeting point, they tell us about urbanity with panache.
