Walzer

About This Movie

Walzer is this intriguing documentary that blends performance and music, taking cues from Pina Bausch’s unique style. It’s a slice of the original piece, capturing the essence of dance in a raw, almost intimate setting. The filming in Wuppertal’s theatre gives it a very particular atmosphere, where the shadows and lights play against the dancers’ movements beautifully. It’s like you’re peeking into a world where every gesture conveys deep emotion. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to savor each moment, each nuance of the performance. The soundtrack, I’d say, adds layers to the visual feast, creating an immersive experience. There’s something about watching the dancers express complexities of human experience that hits home, making it feel very personal yet universal.
