Berührungspunkte

Experimental short film about the feeling of 
connection through dance.

About

Urban dance cultures thrive on freestyle and exchange. Freestyle in particular is often about experimenting with movement concepts. The aim is to create an approach to dancing itself, but also to one's own body and an encounter between dancers and with oneself. The concepts create a framework within which the dancers can move freely.

 

Berührungspunkte (points of contact) is an experimental short film for the love of

dance. A performative encounter between the dancer and the spectator. The intensity

of dancing together should become tangible and a connection to the medium of dance

as a means of expressing emotions and feelings should emerge. However, this intensity and connection can only happen if both allow themselves to open up, relinquish control and admit mistakes. Showing vulnerability means revealing points of

contact to each other.
