Wim Wenders' movie is a tribute to the choreographer Pina Bausch and an exploration of the relationship between movies and bodies. The result is exhilarating and informative: dancers remember Pina, how they evolved as artists with her, and how she inspired them. The film then invites you to contemplate how people express themselves, with gesture and movement, and how they find themselves and each other. As each individual experiences isolation, inside a body, so too might individuals reach across to others, to traverse and reveal and make sense of space, to run and jump and fall, to sway and bend and breathe.
