I received this video, an excerpt from the film Amelia, from a friend of mine. It' absolutely amazing. The photography, the lighting, the choreography...
"The multi-award winning dance film Amelia (2002), directed and choreographed by Edouard Lock and performed by the acclaimed dance company La La La Human Steps, explores the use of point technique using extended intertwining solos, complex partnering sequences and extreme speed to generate powerful performances with unexpected moments of tender emotion and serenity.
A portrait of today’s man and woman seen through the eyes of one of the most innovative artists of our time. Edouard Lock continues to push the limits of dance by exploring human gesture through a breathtaking interplay of speed and extremes and the flawless weaving of choreographic, musical and cinematic strands."
