In Montgomery, Alabama, on the 2:30 pm bus on March 2, 1955, 15-year-old Claudette Colvin refused to give her seat to a white passenger. Despite threats, she remained seated. Thrown in jail, she decides to plead not guilty and to sue the city. No one before her had dared this.

Based on Tania de Montaigne’s eponymous historical essay, Colored is an immersive installation with augmented reality telling the story of this heroine, still alive but long forgotten. Noire is also a portrait of a legendary city, where Martin Luther King, a 26-year-old pastor, and Rosa Parks, an unknown 40-year-old seamstress, crossed paths. Noire is the story of a fight that still goes on against racist violence and injustice.

Visitors, in groups of 5 to 15 people, prepare with specific equipment: a Hololens 2 headset, and a bone conduction audio headset.

The set is quite simple: marks on the ground delimiting the spaces which will become a street, a bus, a living room, a court, etc. In addition to augmented reality using Hololens 2 – making appear holograms of objects and characters - direct effects will be activated depending on the scenes: a real projector will broadcast images on the cinema screen, fans will blow, a light creation will transform the atmosphere of the stage. In addition to the headphones worn by each visitor,  the sound is broadcast by speakers placed at the four corners of the stage and behind the cinema screen.
