A dancefilm-master project in choreography
For Anna Halprin and Susanne Gruber with love
The Heroine dances, my body speaks!
The Hero, my body, so unique, and yet part of the whole life cycle. In every cell, the universe. Dancing my Hero is an autobiographic journey, through six interwoven solos. The qualities and the sequence of the Five Elements are the commune factor, they correspond with the stages of human life, influencing the qualities of people, their instincts and dynamics in space. Sparked by the sense of gratitude towards the body, dancing my Hero want tells the story of a life, through images, sounds, rituals, located in different natural sites and a theatrical location. Although differences in form, surrounding and tempo, we can notice the similarities between the performers, who move through the sequence of the Five Elements. We are different, but still fundamental parts of a big creative whole. A pair of feet move forward despite any obstacle, in an infinite cycle of transformation and renewal.
