“A fortuitous encounter between two icons of film and dance results in this look into the remarkable world of Pina Bausch. Akerman captures the revered late choreographer and her dance company during a five-week tour. Striking images, personal memories, rehearsal footage and excerpts from signature works are masterfully assembled to bring us closer to the enigmatic subject.”

“This screening is preceded by Inheritor Recordings. A collaboration between filmmaker Brian Johnson and Vancouver dance company 605 Collective, Inheritor Recordings is a short film that shows a quiet uprising of a new generation, their movement infused with tiny rebellions and an urgent hunger to claim something as their own.”
