Dancing Dreams

Anna Linsel, Rainer Hoffman, 89 min, Germany.

Dancing Dreams tells the stories of a group of teenagers with little to no dance experience finding a new way of expression and growing together as they work on an emotionally complex dance piece by Pina Bausch. Their stories are both fascinating and revealing, as each the cast members speak of their growth, their relationships with the other cast members, intimacy, their parents and their dreams. A sensation at the Berlin Film Festival, this film is a testament to Bausch's revolutionary work.
