"Down with the standard!"

As night falls, in the heart of the Bois de Boulogne, in the open-air theater of the Jardin Shakespeare, an ideal setting for thought in motion, Adèle Haenel and Caro Geryl bring to life the work of Monique Wittig. A major figure in the Women's Liberation Movement and a pioneer of gender studies and radical lesbianism, Wittig analyzes heterosexuality as a political system in *Straight Thinking*. Under the trees, the reading becomes a living narrative: music, voices, silence, and attentive listening create a suspended moment. The aim is not to explain the theory, but to convey it through bodies and emotions. The audience forms an ephemeral community, come together to feel and understand. During this time removed from the world, words become tools for action. Seeing clearly here means leaving more lucid and stronger.
