Bottommost is a choreographic project that explores the figure of the dog in relation to queer sexualities and love. Emile Pineault and Baco Lepage-Acosta work through the contradictory themes associated with the animal: companionship, submission, domesticity, humiliation and the illusion of unconditional love. They play the game of submitting to each other, with pleasure and agency. They play, as they fight, as they fuck, as they love... unconditionally. Like dogs. Like bitches. Like scratches. Scratch my back, will you?
