Synopsis
Cai Glover is partially deaf: this handicap, which he overcame to become a professional dancer, is the starting point for 9.2, which reflects on perception, language and difference.
Set to Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, created by the German composer when he himself was practically deaf, five performers use Quebec sign language to imagine a sensitive and virtuoso dance.
