CinéSalon • Creative Encounters: One Day Pina Asked…

Un jour, Pina a demandé…
Chantal Akerman, 1983. Color. 57 min. Digibeta.
With Pina Bausch & dancers of the Tanztheater Wuppertal.
In French with English subtitles.
Screened in memory of Chantal Akerman.

One of the most significant choreographers of our time, Pina Bausch revolutionized the stage with her unprecedented fusion of dance and theater. Follow her on tour with her company—the legendary Wuppertal Tanztheater—for an exclusive look in rehearsal rooms, behind the scenes, and on-stage.

Belgian director Chantal Akerman captures the emotion in Bausch’s visually arresting, often viscerally heartbreaking dances in this film made during a seminal moment in both of their careers.
