DANCERS IN THE DARK
2024, 12'
No Dialogue
Inventing new underwater choreographies is the intelligence behind Bodies of Water, the perfect gateway to taming the laws of gravity in virtual reality.
First-degree immersion would be that of a nocturnal show, of dancers synchronizing their movements underwater, of a fragile temporal bubble with obvious underwater poetry. A dazzlingly simple live-action film, Bodies of Water is the perfect gateway to taming the laws of gravity in virtual reality. As the ballet of dancers plunges underwater, as our gaze travels through the 360-degree spectacle before us, the entire environment of the pool at night is transformed, to our great delight.
