Three's A Crowd
(4:48)

 

Two dancers confront their simmering attraction and risk all through direct contact. Referencing both Tango and Contact Improvisation, their movement playfully explores each other’s presence and power. However, things get complicated as the relationship progresses in this hard industrial landscape.

Shot in one continuous take, the rough and ready hand-held camera improvises within the dance, an active participant in their passionate dialogue.

Made with an international cast at Henrichshutte industrial museum, Hattingen, Germany

Music by Olah Vince and his Balkan Romany ensemble Earth–Wheel-Sky Band
