Marée basse – the low tide moment of the day, when everything seems to slow down and thoughts might turn to opening a good bottle.

Faded variety acrobats Benjamin and Mickael open more than one, as this expertly crafted sixty minutes of lazy one-upmanship rolls out in their ramshackle but weirdly labour-saving home.

Sit back, relax and pass some quality downtime with them. They can still impress with feats of drinking, apple peeling, knife throwing, balancing and sheer strength. Not for the faint hearted!

Sacekripa came together at the prestigious Lido Circus School in Toulouse, alma mater of Aurélien Bory and many other top names in French contemporary circus.
