A moment of conviviality will bring the evening to a close.

Artist Maxime Potard, in micro-residence at the UM, accompanied by choreographer Leonardo Montecchia, will take us through a stage of his work in progress, "Danser dans mon petit salon sans me poser de question", a poetic investigation questioning the concept of virility. This presentation will be followed by a discussion with the audience on gender stereotypes and education, to understand how certain social constructs lead to the trivialization of violence. The discussion will be punctuated by the reading of anonymous testimonials collected from UM students during interviews on November 23 and 24.

This event is part of the "Journées d'actions contre les violences faites aux femmes" (Days of action against violence against women).
