Most of the film is composed of dance clips choreographed by Pina, interspersed with dancers who appear in the clips to talk about their experiences. This film is made into 3D, which is a matter of benefit to mankind, because you can imagine yourself watching the dance scene of the Pina Troupe on the spot, and the camera effects and angles, as well as editing, will increase the drama of the dance. Before watching, I was curious about how a documentary shows "Pina as a person". After reading it, I understand that if you want to know an artist, you should go to his work, especially female artists - they are easier to keep pure, Art and character are one.
As said in the film, Pina's works are all about love, pain, and loneliness. I also feel the vitality of resisting "numbness" and "dying state". Even in the love scene she presents, there are still differences. The pain of falling in love, the mutual torture of unrequited love, the freshness of first love, the relationship between the sexes, the obsession of fetishes... Yes, Pina is very passionate and patient to express all aspects of love. There are very few fragments of Pina herself. When she dances, she closes her eyes, her whole body is immersed in a state of completeness, and her heart contains the whole world in stage design; Eyes looking left and right, sensitive, passionate, full of wisdom and reason: such a person, how rich her life is. Her thin body made me feel that she would burn out her life so quickly and would not live long. But her soul not only burns out her own body, but also borrows the bodies and spirits of other dancers to create beauty with infinite meaning. She tapped into other dancers' souls with insight, and taught them to release them through body language. I think the lives of the dancers who have worked with Pina will be changed - because your id is completely exposed to the outside world. And their lives have become the expansion and continuation of Pina's individual life.
Seeing those surreal stage scenes of Pina—in the wilderness, by the rocks, in a semi-enclosed room, under an overturned tram on an elevated track...I'm reminded of Isadora Duncan, her Her dream is to revive the beauty of the Greek era. Whether it's scene design or choreography, she mostly relies on her own strength or the strength of a few friends. In comparison, Pina is much luckier. She has a huge dance group company and has the funds to invest in the scene. , With the new technology of filming dance documentaries, dancers can also understand her various imaginations and requirements, and she can also get inspiration from them, even if the other party only makes a few moves to express happiness. For Duncan, we can only imagine her dance and her thoughts in written records, photos and pictures. Today's audience is happy.
Dance itself is a language. See their dances, such as the people who are lonely and entangled in love, meet and pass by in "The Mueller Cafe"; the pure vitality in "Full Moon"; the same life trajectory and balance destruction of all beings in professional suits The state of uncertainty after... I can feel something, but I can't express it clearly in words, or the brain can't fully grasp it, but the mind can receive more information. I was moved, I cried but I don't know why. Pina's dance directly communicates with our hearts. Everything she wants to say is choreographed into the dance, without adding a single word.
So I understand that there must be many regrets about love in Pina's life, as well as some depression, shadows, yearnings, and even sighs about the lack of body. So she has to keep working, working, working, so that she won't be confused and can live. Or, those unbearable pains can be dissolved and no longer pains.
Dance, dance, dance, otherwise we are lost.
