Claire Denis - Vers Mathilde
Vers Mathilde is a silent meeting of two creative women. Claire Denis, filmmaker, films the bodies and their language in close up. Mathilde Monnier, choreographer, uses movement, extending beyond the dance form, to seek out new windows onto life. Their meeting reflects a strong, close working relationship and Claire Denis’ desire to further explore the mystery of movement. «I wanted to capture what happens when the body starts working; to try and catch the work in progress.»
Sent by our friend Tomas. I thought it would be so meaningful to post a movie on contemporary dance, on one of its most eminent figures... So, Vers Mathilde by Claire Denis, Arte France production, 60 mins, 2004.
