Movement Director Katya Bourvis for SHOWStudio

Movement direction by the incredible Katya Bourvis takes centre stage in ENCORE, a visceral fashion film where bodies speak before words. Bourvis crafts choreography that is both collective and deeply personal — a celebration of release, tension, and introspection through movement.

Directed by Charlie Tronchot, ENCORE marks the French filmmaker’s second foray into fashion film. Where her debut longed for club night euphoria, this follow-up unites dancers in a shared emotional current — rhythm becomes ritual, gesture becomes story.

In austere black spaces, Tronchot and Bourvis explore the cathartic potential of dance music and the body’s instinct to respond. ENCORE doesn’t just move — it listens, pulses, and celebrates.

A tribute to Tronchot’s favourite movers and shakers on screen.
