The young look at the door, the illiterate look at the fun

The dialogues of this movie, I can tell apart from German, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Korean, and probably Chinese (in the last subtitles, there is a dancer who should be Chinese). These subtitled dialogues are a very small, very small part of the movie, and the rest of the thousands of words are done by dance—music and dance, and mankind is going to conquer the Tower of Babel.

However, these languages ​​are not so natural. Spring, new hair in Asakusa, summer, bright sun, autumn, colorful leaves, winter, croaking cold... This group of simple and easy-to-understand movements with the choreographer's personal explanation throughout the audience seems to convince the audience—— Modern dance is not so far away, not so profound, and not so difficult to understand. Follow the music and follow the dancer's body, and you can naturally understand it.

But

in front of this language, I am illiterate, I raise my hand, and I surrender. In the past, I was basically afraid of modern dance - I had absolutely no idea what they were doing, show me a modern dance, and I could probably yawn in the audience. After that, I would like to thank Mr. Lin Huaimin and the arte channel. I can gradually endure it too - just enduring it, it is far from the point of "appreciation", modern dance performance.

The dance choreographed is probably the best way to express a dancer - the film wants to show us not the life of the dancer, but her soul. 3D technology became the best way to achieve this after Pina's death. In fact, this seems to be the first time in Europe that a film has been shot in full 3D, which has sparked a discussion about the proper use of 3D technology.

But unfortunately, as an illiterate, apart from the "Rite of Spring" I have seen the scene (this scene is more beautiful), there are also a few scenes such as a man in a common skirt dancing under a tree that I can understand, other Most of the time I still don't know what they mean.

If you are a fan of modern dance, this film is certainly not to be missed. Fragments of various masterpieces, dancers show themselves through dance. If you are illiterate like me, those who are interested can go and experience it, and those who are unintentional might as well use the money to buy an ice cream and eat it.

PS: One of the dancers in the film seems to be an uncle named Luchane, very much my favorite... That self-touching (big mistake!) is also one of the few types that I can appreciate. When will you go to Wuppertal (and of course take the suspended subway)

PS and PS: Taiwanese filmmakers, please prepare for Mr. Lin Huaimin...
