An iconic, energetic performance by Lala &ce in full rotative motion Lala performs on the top of a custom monolith inspired by the work of French architect Jean-François Zévaco, and in the middle of an atmosphere borrowed to Missy Elliott and video games from the 2000’s.

Lala wears a custom necklace by Parisian artist Clémence d’Humières and custom pants by Helena Tejedor inspired by Michael Jackson’s Bad era.

With "Solstice," Lala &ce presents a dystopian concept album in which La Ligne, a totalitarian force inspired by Italian fascism, controls the emotions of the inhabitants. It plunges the city into a grim and chilling brutalist universe, glimpsed in the music video "No More Time," filmed in Belgrade with Marvin Leuvrey.

However, this hegemony is contested by a rebel faction, the BUT (Bloc Unificateur du Tropique), which, with a mobile sound system, awakens the inhabitants and brings them back to their primal emotions.
