Contakt Triptychon (1992)

Overview

The rhythm and editing of the film and the mostly improvised choreography influence each other in this dance film or film dance. Four people in different forms of relationships: two women, a man and a woman, two men. At the center is a frozen love, two open relationships at the edges—a triptych. Three pieces of music: opera arias for the side sections of the triptych, a jazz tango for the main section. On the left and right, a camera on a steadycam; in the middle, a revolving stage—a contact improvisation begins, danced variations on the possibilities of togetherness and disunity.
