      Pina--It's a Story about Pina and Dance

      I know Pina from the Spanish director Almodovar's film "Talk to Her". The title is the scene from "Mueller's Cafe," starring Pina. The male protagonist burst into tears, and the director turned the camera. Shoot him sideways, like another audience member in the audience secretly looking at the crying man in front. This close-up really touched me. What exactly made this man burst into tears, and the lonely...

      Pina Bausch, a German modern dance artist, died in 2009. The film includes excerpts from several of her dance plays, as well as the memories of her performers. I hadn't heard of Pina Bausch before; I just wanted to see the dance in the film.

      The expressive power of modern dance is powerful and abstract. I don't...

      Let you who don't understand modern dance at all also be shocked

      First of all I'm really sorry, I don't understand modern dance at all. Secondly, I have to say sorry, I don't know how to appreciate documentaries at all.

      But this half-documentary, half-performance 3D movie still shocked me. Dance, mostly dance. It seems to have gotten rid of all kinds of etiquette fetters. Every step and every hand is a straightforward display of soul, so that even people who have no knowledge of dancing can grasp the emotions that the dancers want to express....

      "This is not a film about Bina, but a film dedicated to Bina," said German director Wim Wenders. Therefore, even though this is a documentary called "PINA", it does not see Pina Bausch (1940-2009)'s family background, growth process, and the opportunity for her to enter the dance world, even in the film She was almost invisible in the middle of the night, but Bina did exist. In every dance she creates, in the words of every dancer she has worked with, "or rather, we are all part of her," says...

      Fall down and then caught, kissed and then divided. Lined up in a row to lift the bangs, the girl instantly turned into an old woman, and the boy's temples were gray in an instant. Where can the stage be, a corner of the downtown, suspended light rail, waterfalls and streams, barren slopes on the top of the mountain; what can the body show, the passage of time, the beauty of power, the mystery of nature, the confusion of interpersonal relationships. Women with men's muscles, the perfect...

    Filming process

    Pain and cluelessness are the prelude to Nirvana. Due to the lack of the protagonist, Wenders had to change the original shooting idea.

    Wenders' first 3D work "Pina Bausch" gives people a kind of soul shock. (Review of "The Old Man" )

    The eternal theme of "wandering and alienation" in Wenders'...
