Lauded as “pure virtuosity: abstract, exceptionally dense choreography,” the dazzling Montreal dance company La La La Human Steps premiered “Amélia" on stage in Prague in 2002. Here, director/ choreographer Édouard Lock captures the essence of the work rather than documents it. His goal was to create a seamlessly flowing set of visual tableaux in a simple environment, altered only by lighting and camera angles. The maple-wood box set makes it seem as if the stage floor wraps itself around the dancers. Shot on super 16, the camera moved 360 degrees at times, necessitating some additional choreography to bring the dancers in and out of frame. The high-energy score for violin, cello, piano and voice combines evocative minimalism with lyrics from five of Lou Reed’s most famous songs for the Velvet Underground. “Amélia” was awarded the Czech Crystal at the International Television Festival Goledn Prague and Grand Prize 2003 of the Montréal Arts Council.

Organized by the Macau Cultural Centre, acclaimed Hong Kong choreographer Yuri Ng was invited to present his first work for Macao, taking as his theme clothing, one of the basic necessities in life. This unique work was based on traditional Chinese dances and an experimental dance performance entitled “Dress, Up to Dance", from the “Macao Tale" series. The show was performed by local dancers and explored the conditions under which they discover themselves, while experimentally inspiring their creativity in the portrayal of stories stored in the back of their minds through their bodies.

This is a free admission session

This is a series of documentary clips made on the road from 27th of Aug to 4th of Oct, 2012. In 2012, the team of "Playing Landscape", a Macau original Ink-WaterMovement-Theatre work, were invited to perform in the project "Spera Mundi”, organised by Ideias Peregrinas - Cultural Production from Porto to celebrate Guimarães as one of the European Capitals of Culture in 2012. The film recorded how 30 artists travelled from Guimarães to another Capital of Culture, Maribor in Slovenia, by caravans.

們 wonderland從

The film was created based on the experiences of the dancers in their daily lives and explores the feelings and memories in their bodies towards this city. Living in a city in between games and realities with a lot of absurdities, the dancers see themselves playing in a paradise, but as if through a window, questioning its reality. The dancer, as if rehearsing for The Death of the Swan, uses her last effort to wander in this wonderland.

著 難Back-wash表

This video art speaks about a person's continuous movement in the society who lives and searches for a "seat" with its objective and subjective meaning. A "seat" in another person’s life, a "seat" in a job, a "seat" just to rest, a "seat" for a conversation with somebody, a "seat" to concentrate and "speak" to ourselves, or just to enjoy serenity and a nice view.

Background Photo Credit: Stills from “Back-wash”

back·wash \ˈbak-ˌwȯsh, -ˌwäsh\ [backward flow or movement of water or air produced by a propelling force] This is the story of a man and a woman. A Danse Macabre unfolding in a world where common reality and the realm of myth are blurring; where the borders separating in- and outside are becoming obsolete. This is the story of their alter-egos, caught up in a limbo and no-man’s land, waiting, stuck on river Styx. Neither here anymore, nor yet beyond.

This is her story. She, the one to cross that passage, being pulled. This is his story. Losing and winning her at the same time. And as events take their course, we can’t be quite sure who is playing whom and who is calling the shots.

Build | France | Donald Beteille | 02’55’’

The video unfolds a chain of images which develops the idea of pictorial integration of the body in a landscape. The eyes can immerse into oneself, onto the skin, in wait to become a whole new world with possible stories. A body has its forms, its contours, its limits. Incorporated in a picture, it becomes a frame in a frame. Filmed in a construction site, the video re-questions the verb “to build”, and its meaning.

Abstract beauty, the female aesthetics, subtly influenced by the three Bronte sisters' lives, placed in a contemporary scenery. The fruit paprika symbolises their passing, due to Tuberculosis. The picture was made to explore the possibilities when different art disciplines melt together. The composer, Rüdiger Oppermann, gave the director all the inspiration I needed to let all things come together.

The continuous and constant life of a friend relationship is interrupted when one of the two friends leaves the place where she used to be. BUIT is the research of finding new ways to connect with the one who left and was so close before.

著 難Catharsis表

"Catharsis" is a short contemporary dance film portraying the image of birth through the metaphor of a washing machine. The action takes place in a laundrette, where a “delicate at 37°C” wash brings out a new born body tangled in fresh clothes.

Oscillating between “pure” and “dirty”, the new being goes through human existential experiences, ending up with a cathartic jubilation of life.

Every substance has a medium and it seems like it cannot be seen and cannot be caught. We can only feel it through the interaction between substances.

The sense of touch on our skin lets us see the wind and the flowing of water. These medium will pass the reactions of our sensations to another substance, resulting in whole new landscape.

Beyond the landscape is like the tide, full of a natural force, creating friction between themselves.

A promotional video for an evening of the Bat Sheva Dance Company Ensemble, showcasing the dancers' abilities and creativity. However, thanks to social media, it has received attention and popularity in its own right and stands as an independent piece of video art.

The piece portrays the nightmares of family members as they try to unload the emotional baggage generated by the trauma they have caused to each other, by transforming their nightmares into good dreams. Inspiration for the dance work came from the Ancient Greek family, the Atreides and the tragic figures of Orestes, Clytemnestra, Agamemnon and Iphigenia. The soundtrack is an original composition which, through its atonality, reflects the persecution-complex psychology experienced in nightmares.

From ancient times, number 15 has been assigned with the virtue of discovering all the hidden things and moving everything bad away. But it is also synonym of innocence, naiveness and youth. How can we turn in “15” and bring up our hidden parts to give up all bad things?

著 難15表

A commission work for China at the 2016 Venice Biennale exhibition themed “Sharing · Regeneration”. Based on the concept of nonlinear parallelism, connection does not exist necessarily on a linear context, and a line can make a connection between two points through time and space. A connection is now like a jump between pictures as they transit in a montage, as if the Internet has reduced distances in time and space out of a change in geometric progression.

60 pulses | Greece | Aliki Chiotaki | 03’32’’

One step | USA | Joseph Lisa | 05’16’’ Background Photo Credit: Stills from “15”

Leaving all you know to start a new life is never easy but always necessary.

A female figure smashed into her own world, submitted to a bizarre journey of entrapment. Moves fiercely onto a narrow, rusty old space surrounded by windows which reflect the raging sea. The intense body movements of the dancer explore the idea of making the effort to adjust the moment by moment of timing and action, to test, to provoke the nature of the body. She plays between a quick and suspended, abrupt and subtle rhythm. The act of repetition attests the condition of the body as an elusive phenomenon which disappears even as it occurs. She falls only to rise again. Never stops. The hyper electro -acoustic sound adds an aura of discomfort and strangeness to this presence where stands acts and reacts in an on-going circle.

See yourself, seeing yourself, being seen. One person explores the self by looking in from the outside. Whether the view is intimate, obstructed or distant, the armature is evident and each self reveals another of the same kind. The challenge is to distill that true self, and reconcile the inner world with outer reality.

“Every person and situation in your life is a mirror aspect of you, your deepest secrets show up in the reflections you see of yourself.” Taken from the book “A Little Light on the Spiritual Laws” by Diana Cooper “As within so without” is a sequel to the “mirror” solo dance performance in the dance theatre performance “Jing An Si Road No. 192 6th Floor”.

The brick. The body. The architecture. The movement. The synthesis. The balance. The invention. The surprise. Before the Portuguese discovered Brazil, Brazil had discovered happiness.

Tupi or not Tupi, that is the question..

From a lake palace in Udaipur, India, to an ancient fortress way up in the hills, a western traveler slips into the mystery of devotional India and meets a young Indian Kathak dancer. The expanse of the Rajasthani hills and the multi-tiered architecture of Devi Garh palace become a gateway for the two women to explore layers of identity, presence and memory. Stirring in the resonance of the location they move through a maze of balconies and pavilions up to the rooftop and the wide open sky.

"When you really love dancing, you remember it from time to time.” This is a dance video about the pursuit of oneself. During a European tour, the two dancers have their first moves in an unknown street.

They dance for themselves, not to the audience or any other purpose. What comes along is a self-talk between body and environment...

Contrivance | Sweden | Cyntia Botello | 07’04’’

Background Photo Credit: Stills from “Crushing Weight”

Seven prongs rest on fine points on the ground. The smooth floor of the concrete chamber is only softened by the residual mats of chip not collected by the pincing prongs. Along this strip of rich smelling wood four legs walk against sunlit wall, profile view with incline of the horizontal.

This is a visual poem that goes from decay to light.

It's a soul walking through this abandoned place. A spirit that passes and is no longer there. It is the transcendence represented by dance in chaos. Even in the moments when she is very powerful, all moves have an ambiguity. This film talks about rawness, whereas this is about doubt. A raging, trumpeting jungle of associations, and then she announces at the end of it, with a gesture of despair, 'This is it!'.

Here this soul lives in a ethereal place. It was released in the light and knows that there is nothing so intense that it can stay. Everything is transitory.

This film talks about rawness, whereas this is about doubt. The location in a hospital abandoned 20 years ago that has been taken by a contemporary art exhibition. A set of historic buildings located in the center of São Paulo, Brazil, opened to make a portrait of Brazilian contemporary ballet. The strangeness of space and its connection with the art works have been translated in the choreography of the dancer Irupé Sarmiento, first ballerina at Balé da Cidade de São Paulo.

The dying moments of 24 dancers, each consumed by the city of London. Moving Southwark is a magical realist expression of London's medieval backyard. Part of the wider Moving Cities remit to investigate culture and people via expressions of dance, the film takes the audience deeper into London, probing further into what makes up the people in a city.

We may live in a global village, but we do not have as many choices as we think. Innumerable plastic products are manufactured by men, taking only a few minutes, yet its decomposition in nature takes thousands of years. Disorder and collapse are lurking an orderly appearance. Throughout the recycling process, in between human and waste, there is vacuum, coexistence, abandonment .

Taiwanese Director and Choreographer Peng Hsiao-yin contemplates our plastic life in a confined space with dance.

A minimalistic story told with dance and stop motion animation. After a long standstill, the protagonist learns to feel once again.

The film mainly investigates the connection between dance and visual arts, in which their properties get inverted through their use in time. Drawing and dance meet to generate a dialogue between staticity, represented by singular images, and movement, created by their succession.

著 難Hidden Tracks表

BLUFF presents a strip-poker game that goes from a look, a figurative and realistic situation, to a composition, where the movement, the body and their game generate a multi-view of stripteases interrelated; physicality and some from other from emotional engines.

"Signs at the border caught only by a careful look waiting. Footprints left by silence, emerge on the surface of the body to form an image map; an echo of past emotions. Weaving gesture reveals the physical permeability and seeks suspended traces that cloaks the daily life. Imperceptible sedimented noise."

Maurice Lai create this work in Experimental Film Virginia as an artist of residence in 2014. Movement created by Scarlet YU and Xavier Le Roy. In different stage of your life, can you find someone that walking in your rhythm?

The HYDRA tries to find a way through the city, a way out, but never can. The HYDRA plays with what is, what was and what could be. The HYDRA is the forgotten high-lines, meandering and moving like dead through the houses and streets of Paris, it is the nature that conquers the city and goes there where humans don’t anymore, because they forgot and it is a Human Being who, like the other two, tries to find a way out, but never can. Three different bodies, a human, a technical and a musical one are meeting and intensifying their dance.

著 難Passage表

Labyrinths is a dance-based video work with original computer music employing the latest techniques in 3D motion graphics, particle systems and movement/sound coordination and green-screen filming. The work features dancer Kate Anderson and choreography by Elizabeth Shea, with videography and music, in 5.1 surround, by Jeffrey Hass. Based loosely around imagery of labyrinths and mazes, along with oddly-adapted models of blueberries, eyeballs, and pin sculptures, the work very abstractly progresses from constraint to release in a fantastical setting.

The film depicts the relationship between man and nature. Presenting Nordic human, who is living in isolated location in the merge of nature. Movie has been filmed in Århus (DK), Lappeenranta (FIN), Tromsø (NO) in 2014-15. This movie was taking part of bigger multidisciplinary research project.

Research the topic: How light will effect us in physical and mentally ways in different locations and seasons. The result of this research was dance film (13min), live performance (60min) and photo exhibition (12photos).

This is a place where has been washed by many people and many stories by years of time. To the place, the consciousness of an individual is insignificant. It is that one second, one minute, one day, one month, one year, one century that gives colours of the present. Besides from time, what we could also see are all those people and things of the past that are absent at this moment.

One woman’s fight to shed the emotional inhibition which prevents her from feeling any true physical connection to her life. Through her desperate journey, she seeks a way to feel the reality of her world; passion, pain, joy and vulnerability alike, and reconnect with the visceral sensations of what it is to be human, alive and conscious.

The transition between not wild and wild is for most people all about a feeling and it is this very personal response that matters not lines on maps. The stepping over an invisible threshold where the shoulders relax and you smell the pine in the air, catch a glimpse of a red squirrel, watch wood ants wrestling on sun warmed rock, step over the raptortorn remains of a Ptarmigan and lie down in the heather and stare at the clouds for a while thinking about nothing in particular. This work was commissioned through the Imagining Natural Scotland project during the Year of Natural Scotland, funded by Creative Scotland and Scottish Natural Heritage. Simon Fildes and Katrina McPherson collaborated with the Centre for Mountain Studies at The University of the Highlands and Islands; examining and responding to the issues around the research into the mapping of 'wild land' in Scotland.

Bittersweet, almost tangible remembrance is vividly portrayed by dancers Rolf Hepp (the director's father), Martinette Janmaat (the director's former teacher/mentor) and two young performers: Reggy Deekman and Célinne Moza. As the images of the older and the younger couple become more intertwined, we begin to understand that this story is not only about youth being lost.

A tailor, his wife : a day like any other. Then she comes in. The rhythmic gestures of the craft become a dance, now. A dancing ménage à trois in one minute.

Concerned and in close connection with the space where they are Bodies, operate their language in communication with physical difficulties and challenges, creating mimesis between body and texture. This is where the camera builds a drama that leads to a reading itself, while the dancers are stifled and stuck to inquire about a painting without something that until now could never be found out.

The cyclical and competitive nature of empires is given a distinctly human spin in this short dance film.

Four individuals share the space, worlds collide, rise, and crumble; the power shifting and changing as they dance together and around each other. With sharply drawn characters amidst a landscape littered with symbolism “The rise and Fall of Private Empires” is as much a meditation on the fate of the individual as it is a description of the collective human experience. People may fall and empires will fade, but the echoes always remain.

Henri Matisse worked in dance movement through the colour blue. Bleu, the depth colour. The depth, something present in all people's heart. People, all those who leave a footprint in us and on whom we decide to be or not to be.

In the Thick of the Middle follows a woman who is caught in-between water and land, dreams and reality, and seasons. The camera follows her dreamlike reality as she weaves through shifting textures and densities on and off land. Originally inspired by a reoccurring dream and the dilemma of choice-making in the choreographic process, In the Thick of the Middle is part of a larger multi-media performance project by Ellen Oliver.

Its about a man trapped in the tunnel of his thoughts.

The movements and positions he does are small squares that reflect the walk inside himself in which he is only guided by the hallucinations of his imprisonment. Some animals can get inside, only to remember that there is another world outside.

In this short, the dance becomes an upheaval of an off-limits, dormant space and its history. Inheritor Recordings is quiet uprising of a new generation, their movement infused with tiny rebellions and a hunger to take over, urgent to claim something as their own. Inheritor Recordings is a reimagined adaptation of an excerpt from Company 605’s original full-length stage work, entitled Inheritor Album, and was made possible through the generous support of the Canada Council for the Arts Dance On Screen Production Fund and the BC Arts Council.

著 難Mourning表

It is based on the unexpectedly joyful art of stage fighting, freed from the constraints of plot and psychological realism. The choreography explores how violence has such an electrifying effect upon its viewers, even though many are loathe to admit this most guilty of pleasures. Central to the work is Freud’s notion of Schadenfreude: the ways in which we are all capable of taking pleasure in other people’s misfortune.

It is a film that talks about memory and creation process of an artist. Gathering a series of images archives from rehearsals of solos embodied by Claudio Bernardo, it allows us to get as close as possible to the artist’s intimacy, to share and perceive his moments of doubts, to observe his thoroughness and loneliness in the research.

Mourning | Hungary | Réka Szabó | 09’44’’

Kind of Moti | Poland | Marcin Motyl | 03’08’’ Background Photo Credit: Stills from “Mourning”

It is an attempt to show a person who differs from others, tries to reveal different points of thinking through improvisation and losing oneself in an imagination. At the beginning, the behaviour seems to be natural and day-to-day. After a while, there is something wrong and we realise this behaviour is not a proper one.

Artist-ghosts arrive to a mourning ceremony, where they say good-bye to the passed away with absurd performances. We slowly realise that they are the ones themselves that don’t exist anymore. It is with deep sorrow and a sunken heart that we announce that we do not exist anymore. Following a protracted bout with illness, we unexpectedly stretched out in a comic twist. We are grateful for your visiting in dwindling numbers towards the end. Its hard to piss in one’s bed with dignity.

She has been in silence for a long time. As a result of not talking about what has happened, she has forgotten so many things, and today, without looking for it, she opens the door of her memories to realise that future is the result of what we’ve made grown in the past and present.

難System Suicide表 Background Photo Credit: Stills from “System Suicide”

The film is questioning the randomness that exist in firmly structured regularity. The probable patterns occurring in this structured system are a not a concept of chance. Illusions of control are making us neglect the intuitive existence. To oppose the predictability, we have to be present in different forms and build a system of unpredictable regularities and patterns formed by chance. Where we are allowed to search through the indescribableness, while exposing the primary drives that connect us into co-creating and coexisting, within a certain structure or system.

"For that dance film, I would like working on the theme of memory and especially on the issue of reconciliation of the living with the dead, of ourselves with our past; suddenly the ideal seems to be a graveyard in daylight (…)." From concept to reality on a delicate theme even taboo, memory sometimes surprises us because it's not an easy subject to understand especially when one wants to stage the dance. Memory sometimes leads us on confusing roads or face ourselves.

This is a chicken coop | China | Er Gao | 15’00’’

Background Photo Credit: Stills from “There is one undone”

Imagine all human beings returning to an original state and conventional rules no longer apply.

Imagine all human beings are objectified and the next dominating species have a completely different social system - what would the world be like?

Whenever we are observing other creatures, they are observing us at the same time.

Africans who were enslaved in Nigeria in the 18th century were subjected to a ritual around the "Tree Of Oblivion”. Men should spend nine times walking around, and women should do seven times. So that while the ship's voyage to America they would forget their land, from its origins, its history, its identity.

Each turn around the tree represented the death of memories. Mystical action. Profane and sacred, all together and mixed, as all that is Africa, as all who vent the immeasurable richness of this magical, lush continent, home of the most joyous gods, linked to raw nature.

Uno Senza Due | China | Wang Yuanqing | 02’08’’

The concept of the video is based on the dance piece “Uno Senza Due” of the dancers Iratxe and Igor. The couple travelled all over the world to look for inspirations for choreography, and this process has become the common overlapping life experience between the two; I tried to use the camera to explain the connections between the two, which rely on the fact that men and women were born again in two opposite states.

Four dancers from Israel, Spain and Italy decide to take part in a cultural project and investigate the stories of some refugees from Pakistan living in camps outside Berlin.

A reflection about the possibility of the body to tell stories, deleting social and ethnic distinctions, and connecting people from different groups.

The project focuses on the work of the dancers who decided to take part in the performance “Connecting Fingers” that had its premiere in Berlin at the English Theatre in June,2015. The show shares stories from some refugees who live or have lived in camps outside Berlin. The refugees were interviewed about their personal lives, and they shared private anecdotes and political situations they experienced.

The dancer’s memory was interwoven with the memory of the Salvador city (Bahia/Brazil) during the creative process, thus seeking synergy between traces and reflections of those memories and what the outskirts of Rio Branco Palace - where the videoinstallation was presented - offered us as traces of Salvador’s history. The Navy breakwater, Forte São Marcelo, the basement of the Mercado Modelo, the gardens of the Palace, the sea and the Cathedral Square – all have become scenarios in which body memories have been played out in the Dance Films created by the artistic project GAPS IN TIME. Through memory we can “presentify” sensations, feelings and states of existence that, although fleeting, have left their marks on our bodies.

What happens in the minutes before death, when the scenes of our whole lives flash through our minds. As in a film, a dream, where the most important moments of the trajectory of a person are relived. Inspired by the work-experiment Orfee’s Head, created for the 2nd year of the department of Dance Theatre (MTD) of the Amsterdam School of the Arts (AHK) Theaterschool in March 2007.

Choreographed by Yuri Ng in 1996, Boy Story is a legendary work from Hong Kong. The city’s three major companies – CCDC, Hong Kong Ballet and Hong Kong Dance Company – as well as Taiwan’s Cloud Gate 2 have either staged the piece or their dancers have performed in it. It toured to Japan and France and won the Prix d’Auteur at the 6th Rencontres Choreographiques Internationale de Seine-St-Denis, Bagnolet. Ng brought together all the original dancers eighteen years after the premiere and couldn’t resist treading the boards once more. Boy Story is more than the accolades it received and the places it visited.

It is the story of struggles of Malaysian Chinese dancers. It is the other half of Hong Kong’s dance history.

Hong Kong was where the boys’ dreams came true. Boy Story was their paths intersected. Can Hong Kong still hold dreams? *

It was said, “Snakes can only see moving things, while the world of dogs is black and white.

Dragonflies can see a thousand suns. Some fishes live in the deep blue sea have eyes that turn into two white spots. It is our destiny that decides what we can see and what we cannot.” Our fate opens a unique door for each individual. "A Beautiful Day”, taking on the same name as the physical theatre piece, is a re-interpretation of Jenny Mok’s “Perceptual Series” which is inspired by Autism.

This is a free admission session

Glove Story explores the notion of personal space and the all-too-often invasion into it. It asks the question: what are the psychological, physical and social repercussions of treating borders as mere suggestions? This question echoes much stronger in the local political climate of our region and of our times. The film follows four characters through a series of hyperrealistic topographies and architectural settings in which, like in Sartre's “No Exit”, individuals are one another's heaven or hell. The gloves are the recurring object, a thin line of protection – which also gives its wearer “permission” to penetrate another's space unharmed.

The film follows the construction, eruption, corruption and destruction of the masculine self and other. It investigates the boundaries of masculinity, and the forces that operate on the male body, while borrowing from different cultures and modalities. The movement language can be traced to traditional forms and concepts integral to martial arts. It translates it into a contemporary individualised expression in different ways, while counterbalancing it with the mundane “everyday” gestures of male bonding.

A long path of “reconnection” in a post-industrial devastated world. When human brain neurons are totally confused and ruptured, the world is full of industrial waste and the endless noises of factory machine. Abnormal electrical current still controls the human body, which we call ZOMBIE as they have an instinct to move but not think. As time passed, the only pair of synapses is activated in a dusty library. Some jazz music is suddenly played.

When neurotransmitters generally spread in the air such as viruses, zombies wake up with shark-like bloodthirst to jazz, their brains are gradually restored with full energy. The Zombies inadvertently pick up the book on the ground, curious about everything, including the faint floral scent meeting their noses. Do they think of something in the pass? Or in the future?

Some things never change … You don't know exactly when you have arrived – and you find yourself there. Politicians. Jappies. Upstart and local mob exhausted the city completely. For them, remain empty streets, courtyards and squares, demolished buildings and elderly people whose path is ended here. Every space is filled with traces of the past. A group of young people in the city with no perspective decides to escape; seven dancers in a short experimental dance film constantly faced with physical and mental handicaps of the present, which is crisscrossed with shadows and echoes of the past. Dance of the one, two, thousands of bodies scattered through the grey zones of ancestors. Large windows. Cold floors. Stalker. Locked between the rusty walls, trapped between half-closed eyelids of normal people, somewhere below, past the hungry eyes - is happening, the world of searchers, dreamers, dancers, the days are numbered.

Always the same things happened over and over again, while the output is always somewhere else ... Finding freedom, what hurts, escape from everyday routines, that pulling back, generating a cycle of continuous return (different), who refuses to believe that the way out does not exist.

This is a free admission session

The continuation of the protagonist’s exploration of The Engineer's mysterious installation, as she further realises the rules of the world she’s in. Mind games, metaphors, and nested storylines inform a narrative unique to the cine-dance genre, in effect using sci-fi thriller conventions to inform the essay on the clash of postmodernism and neoromanticism at its heart. As semiotic references abound, the protagonist credited as “Interpretant ) (.I” must figure out how to affect the outcome of other narrative constructs that are being brought to life in a setting where causality is merely a suggestion. Additionally, forces from that world will appear to her to help, obstruct, or simply indicate, as she attempts to understand the rules and symmetries of her predicament.

In this short film we are looking at the life of White, a young man who comes back from work, frustrated from his everyday life keeps commenting on everything that is happening to him. When he enters the house we meet his 3 colours or personalities that are always there to visualise not only his thoughts and feelings but also the external inputs that he experiences and receives. As the movie proceeds we get to see more of White’s everyday life and his concerns about himself and life around him.

"Unsettling Green" it's a short video dance. Easily , it can even be misunderstood and incorrectly compared to a music videoclip because of it's length and composition. It's an experimental work between dance, choreography and video art, where a men and a woman represents the norm on the constant, anxious and unsettle visuals changing of the video. This work has traces from the psychedelic voyages of the fast and routine burning lifestyles we live. To optimise the message of this video, the lyrics of the selected song "Down

By The Water" by The Drums, accompanies this video-dance under its melancholy dressing.
