Following Pina Bausch and her world-renowned Wuppertal Tanztheatre troupe on tour, Chantal Akerman observes the legendary choreographer as she, in turn, scrutinizes her dancers, creating a mise en abyme of gazes that gets to the heart of Bausch’s avant-garde method. An extraordinary encounter between two of the greatest artists of our time, whose work shares a profound physicality, a use of formal rigour to probe raw emotion, and a vision that is equally informed by violence, desperation, longing, and love.
